About Kinder (developmentally disabled children)

I am looking for a kinder for my son.
He may have autism.
He is slow-paced, has trouble switching, can't ask for help from others, and has trouble imagining other people's situations, but since he has no intellectual disabilities, it will be a little while before a diagnosis is made.

I would like to make it as easy as possible for my son to attend, but any information on kinder in the South Bay area would be helpful. (We are planning to move at this time)
Are there any places that are suitable for children with developmental disabilities? My son goes to a Japanese preschool, so he only knows a little English.

Thank you in advance.

I am a mother of a child with high functioning autism.

I don't live in the South Bay, so I can't give you specific school names, but
I would suggest that you look for a school that has an "inclusive education" class
where developmentally disabled and normal children study in the same class.

My child was also in an Inclusive education class.
There were more teachers and assistants than usual, so they were very attentive, and
many of the staff were trained in special needs
and were used to dealing with them.
I think there were more students with developmental borders ？ than usual.

Once you have a school district, you should be able to get a free
assessment for developmental disabilities at the special education department of your school district.

If you believe that he/she has a disability, it would be best to start medical care and education as soon as possible.
If this is of any help to you.

Sorry, just to clarify, this is an addendum to the above.

By "school district" I mean the public school district (School District™). I don't know the process for private schools, as I have no experience with them.

In our family's experience, the process was
apply for admission to the school district → assessment → the school district staff recommends a school ・ class that is appropriate for your child.

Rather than pinpointing "this school ！" on your own, you may want to consult with the school district first.

> Mr. inclusive
Thank you very much for your kind attention. I am very grateful for this information as I did not know about it. I immediately contacted the South Bay Area School District by e-mail.
