Exciting NAO program in the works!

Since 2017, Your Angel has been developing an innovative interactive learning & development program using internationally acclaimed NAO humanoid robots.

Our program is designed to help local children living with Autism, developmental, social, emotional and/or behavioural challenges.        

Through the NAO robot we provide fun, engaging, interactive gameplay which enables kids to develop core social & educational learning skills whilst building confidence and self-esteem.

Our NAO trials with children in therapy and public school over the years have ensured our program is highly relevant and effective for local children.

In 2018 we conducted a closed pilot with Bowral Public School. Working closely with select learning & support staff and students, the outcomes of our pilot exceeded expectations on a number of fronts. Due to this success we have continued to deliver our NAO program with the school to this day.

As we introduce more children of new and varied circumstances we continue to refine our program for maximum impact. With this program already positively benefiting children of broad and varying circumstances, we’re on a mission to secure funding which will enable us to deliver our NAO program to the wider community.

Through our Pilot we have also found NAO to be an effective tool for children facing social, emotional and behavioural challenges:

  • Helps regulate behaviour
  • Improves responsiveness / co-operation
  • Engages shared experiences
  • Builds trust / connections (between support staff & child)
