In this episode of The Autism Helper Podcast, Sasha chats with Dr. Erin Michaud, a Speech-Language Pathologist and BCBA-D with over 20 years of experience supporting infants at high likelihood for autism. Dr. Michaud shares what she’s learning from the Early Markers of Autism Project, including the earliest behavioral indicators to look for and how to distinguish meaningful early signs from typical infant variability.

She also discusses how she supports families through her private practice, using NDBI (Naturalistic Developmental Behavioral Intervention) strategies to help parents build social and communication skills through everyday routines. We talk about practical, parent-led actions that make a real difference, how to create natural opportunities for connection, and how to navigate the common question: “Should I wait and see, or seek early support?”
