For fellow maker moms

Building something for autistic kids?Let me help with the tech.

You have an idea, a resource, an event, a community. Something that could make life a little better for autistic kids. The website or app part is where I come in.

Tell me what you're making

No polished pitch needed.

Hi. I'm Nadia.

That's my bag.

I'm a designer, builder, author and mom. I like taking half-formed ideas and making something practical out of them, quickly.

This is a small way to put that skill to work for other moms making things that help autistic kids. You don't need a deck, a business plan or the right tech words. Tell me what you're making and what you need it to do.

Small is a good place to start

The kind of thing I can help with.

A home for your project

A simple website that explains the idea and helps people find it.

A place to gather

An event or community page with the details people need.

Resources, in one place

A useful home for the things you've already made or collected.

One useful little app

A small tool that does one thing well. We start with that one thing.

Here's how it works.

A small build. Clear edges. Something useful.

  1. 1. Send the messy version.

    Tell me what you're making, who it helps and the one thing the website or app needs to do. Applications are considered for one project each month; applying doesn't guarantee a build.

  2. 2. Agree on a small, useful scope.

    If it's a fit, we'll agree on what I'm building, the timing and any outside costs before we start. My labor is free. Domains, hosting and paid services are separate, and you own those accounts.

  3. 3. Build it. Hand it over.

    We'll agree on the handoff and any follow-up help upfront. This is a small project with a clear finish, rather than an ongoing maintenance arrangement.

Your idea goes here

What are you making?

A few sentences are enough. This form is for adults making a project; keep it about the project and the people it helps in general.

Keep the kids' details private.

Please don't include children's names, photos, medical information or other private details, including in linked files. No uploads are needed.

Your application is stored privately to review the project and contact you about it. It won't appear on the public site. You can contact me to ask for it to be deleted.

Contact Nadia

All fields are required except existing links and content.

Tell Nadia about your project

Tell me the idea. Describe who it helps in general, without personal details about children.

For example: help people find my resource collection.

$0 is a valid answer. If you have a budget, say whether it's monthly or one-time. My design and build time is free.

Submitting lets me review your project and contact you about this application. It doesn't reserve a build or commit you to any costs.
