════════ HOW IT WORKS ════════

1. After purchase, Etsy emails you an instant download link. Click and unzip
to a folder on your computer. Read README.txt first (2-minute setup).
2. Open the .xlsx in Google Sheets > File > Make a Copy (so the master
template is preserved). File > Settings > Locale = United States.
3. Fill Tab 2 (Child Profile) first. Every other tab references these fields.
4. Add your pediatrician, therapists, and one crisis line on Tab 3.
5. Add your next IEP meeting on Tab 4 — the Next Annual Date and Countdown
Alert cells auto-recalculate every time you open the file.
6. Print pages 2-12 first (the dividers). Cut along each dashed 0.25"
outer margin. Slide each cut divider into a 1" Avery Speedy Spine tab.
Slip the spine into a 1.5" three-ring binder (locking D-ring preferred).
7. Print the rest of the binder as you need it. Use the page map above
to know exactly what's coming. Reprint any page, any time — the PDF
lives forever on your device.

BUILT FOR THE DAY-OF-DIAGNOSIS PARENT

The 60-day window after an autism diagnosis is uniquely hard. You are
seeing specialists, calling school districts, fighting for Medicaid
authorizations, tracking melt-downs, and writing things down that used
to live in your head. This binder was designed for that window — and
it stays useful through Year 1, Year 2, Year 3, and IEP cycle 1, 2, 3.

WHY PARENTS UPGRADED FROM STARTER → STANDARD

• Reprint the PDF every year — it's a real binder, not a one-shot PDF
• 11 tab dividers mean you stop re-typing things into a generic planner
• IEP log has dedicated pages (no more narrating 90-day windows in margins)
• Medication refill schedule is a calendar page, not a hidden cell
• Tear-away 4 × 6" crisis cards slip into a wallet — a real safety net
• 16 months of daily behavior log on 8 pages, not a workbook you'll outgrow

STANDALONE COMPARISON

STANDARD edition (this listing, `$24.99):
