Supporting Children with Attention Difficulties
Does your child find it challenging to stay focused on tasks, whether at school, during homework, or even during playtime? Do you notice restlessness, fidgeting, or impulsive behaviour? Perhaps they struggle to follow instructions, are easily distracted, or have difficulty organising their thoughts and belongings.
These are some common signs that may indicate attention difficulties, such as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), in children- falling under three main categories inattentive, hyperactive-impulsive, or a combination of both.
Attention difficulties can significantly impact a child’s life, affecting their ability to concentrate, learn and thrive in various environments.

Meet Matthew
Matthew, a restless and unfocused child, found relief and remarkable improvement through our tailored auditory stimulation programme. His sensitivity to sound decreased, leading to increased cooperation, better academic performance, and a noticeable positive shift in demeanour.
Introduction
Matthew, a restless and unfocused child, found relief and remarkable improvement through our tailored auditory stimulation programme. His sensitivity to sound decreased, leading to increased cooperation, better academic performance, and a noticeable positive shift in demeanour.
Restless beginnings
From a young age, Matthew showed signs of restlessness and difficulty focusing. As a baby, he struggled with colic and had trouble sleeping through the night. Matthew’s boundless energy was evident as he even managed to escape from his cot, displaying a determination beyond his years. As he entered playschool, his constant movement, and curiosity made it challenging for him to stay engaged and focused.
Social struggles
Around the age of six, Matthew’s academic performance began to suffer. Sitting still during activities like reading became a significant challenge for him. He would often slide off his chair and adopt a crawling stance on the floor. Joining other children in play became difficult, and he struggled to find his place and make genuine friendships. Matthew also had sensitivity to certain sounds, which caused distress and made it hard for him to fully engage.
Discovering Cluas
Matthew’s journey took a positive turn when his mother found Cluas. We understood the unique needs of children like Matthew and offered an individual auditory stimulation programme tailored specifically to him. Our innovative programme used classical music and specialised sound equipment to enhance Matthew’s listening skills and retrain his sound analysis abilities. We also addressed his auditory and vestibular systems to improve coordination and body awareness.
Remarkable results
Since working with Cluas, Matthew’s results have been truly remarkable. His sensitivity to sound has decreased significantly, bringing relief to both Matthew and his mother. Matthew has become more cooperative and willingly helps with chores, a heartwarming transformation. His improved ability to listen for longer periods has had a profound impact on his academic performance. He is more attentive and dedicated to his studies. While he remains an active child, he has become noticeably calmer and better at managing his energy and focus during classes.
