Hi! My name is Yisela, and I am the creator of The Little Sensory Shop.

For a long time, I struggled to understand why some sensory input felt so overwhelming. I grew up in a time when neurodevelopmental disorders (like autism spectrum, SPD, ADHD, and others) were rarely diagnosed — less so in grown-ups. However, I was eventually diagnosed and started to investigate what aids me and what makes my life more challenging.

That’s when I came across a few products that really helped me deal with my surroundings. I had no idea some of these existed, so it was an amazing feeling to see I didn’t have to… well, do everything on my own! Or without any kind of assistance.

Eventually, I decided to create this site and share some of my findings. I am just a person who struggles with sensory and emotional regulation; I’m not a doctor or healthcare expert. I just collect and share things and tools I have either tried or want to try (and only those with good reviews on sites like Amazon).

Hopefully, these will help others in their journeys of discovery, too!
