An attractive worksheet can make a session feel prepared before you have decided what the session needs. Give the tool a job before giving it to the family.

What matters today?

Ask which routine the family wants to discuss and what they hope becomes more workable. A topic appearing in your packet does not automatically make it their priority.

What already works?

Identify existing supports and communication you want to preserve. A new tool should make room for those details.

What remains unclear?

Separate a question that needs observation from one that needs explanation or supported practice. A form can organize information without deciding the clinical answer.

How does the caregiver want support?

Discuss language, format, access, modeling, reflection time, and practice preferences. Ask what would be feasible during the actual routine.

What happens after this page?

Agree on the next action and a review point. A completed worksheet should lead somewhere useful.

The Parent Training Baseline brings these areas into one optional conversation. Select the sections that serve the family’s current question.
