Our Founder’s Journey

Parent Pathway to ABA began with Dr. Dayna Dane’s personal journey as a mother navigating her son’s autism diagnosis. What started as seeking answers and support grew into becoming a Registered Behavior Technician and advocating for other families. Her experiences inspired the creation of a resource hub where parents, caregivers, and the wider autism community can find guidance, materials, and encouragement all in one place.

Foundational Insights

Parent Pathway to ABA is built on the belief that parents and caregivers deserve accessible tools, practical guidance, and community support to help children on the spectrum thrive. Rooted in lived experience and professional training, our work blends evidence-based strategies with real-world understanding to create resources that empower families and strengthen the autism community as a whole.
