Résumé :	The aim of the present study was to investigate positive experiences with professionals and services, from the perspective of mothers of children with autism. Parents’ negative experiences with services are well documented, but the experiences of ‘good practice’ have been less well researched. Seventeen mothers of children with autism aged between 5 and 10 years old were interviewed regarding their experiences of accessing services for their child, and in particular their experiences of good practice. Using inductive thematic analysis, three core themes were identified. These related to mothers valuing aspects of professionals’ engagement, manner, and interactions with mothers; elements of professional and services provision (such as knowledge, community building, and hands-on skill development); and the ways services delivered their provision (e.g., through personalisation and adaptation, and ease of access). The findings of this study illustrate that these are clearly aspects of good practice valued by mothers of children with autism, which could be generalised to other neurodevelopmental conditions. Future research should consider establishing directional links between good practice concepts, for example using grounded theory.
