Real Talk: Most Family Vacations Feel Like Herding Cats in a Thunderstorm You know the drill:

  • Endless research that leaves you more confused than when you started

  • "Sensory-friendly" resorts that clearly don't understand autism

  • Feeling like you have to choose between adventure and your child's comfort

Here’s what really gets me fired up:
Families with autistic children often get told their travel dreams are “too complicated” or they should “lower their expectations.”

That’s absolute nonsense.
Your family deserves more than just surviving a vacation. You deserve to love it.

“I was terrified about the noise and crowds, but Joy picked the perfect stateroom and gave us maps of all the quiet spaces. My son called it his ‘best vacation ever.”

Jennifer L.

Disney Cruise Line

“I had about 50 questions before our cruise and Joy answered all of them without making me feel ridiculous. She sent me a packing list and told me where the quiet spots were on the ship. We didn’t need half the backup plans, but having them made me way less stressed. My husband actually said I looked relaxed in the vacation photos for once.”

Danielle

Universal Roller Coaster

A huge thank you to Joy for making our Universal Studios trip unforgettable. I was feeling overwhelmed by all the details, but Joy took care of everything. Her advice on the best times to visit Harry Potter World saved us so much time and hassle. Joy’s recommendations for dining and shows were spot-on, and her tips made our trip smooth and enjoyable. We couldn’t have done it without her. If you want a stress-free and fun vacation, Joy is the best!

“I thought planning for my sensory kid meant my other daughter would miss out. Joy booked us at Disney Aulani and found stuff they could both enjoy. One got her Minnie Mouse breakfast, the other got his quiet beach times, and nobody melted down. I didn’t feel guilty the whole time, which honestly never happens on vacation.”
