SKB Life Steps
A Family's Journey Through the Unknown
by Simon Beck and Kylie Beck
Part memoir, part guide, “Living with FASD: A Family’s Journey Through the Unknown” offers real-life insight into what it means to navigate Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder. Written by parents who have lived the experience, this book provides comfort, awareness, and encouragement for families, carers, and professionals alike.
Kylie and Simon Beck didn’t set out to become experts in neurodiversity—they became parents. Along the way, their lives were shaped by raising children with FASD, ADHD, Autism, and more. Through laughter, tears, trial, and triumph, they discovered what truly helps families survive—and thrive. Today, they run SKB LifeSteps Support, where they walk alongside other families with the compassion and understanding they once longed for themselves. This book is part of their ongoing mission to remind parents and carers everywhere: you are not alone.

“Proud of the work they’re doing! I’m not a client of SKB Life Steps Support, but I’ve had the privilege of watching the work they do up close — and I can honestly say it’s inspiring. They have experienced this first hand and the care, dedication, and integrity they put into helping others is something you don’t see every day. It’s clear that SKB isn’t just about services — it’s about people. They really do go the extra mile to make sure those they support feel heard, respected, and empowered. I’ve seen firsthand how passionate they are about making a real difference, and it’s amazing to watch. If you’re looking for a team that genuinely cares and puts heart into everything they do, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend SKB Life Steps Support.”

“SKB Life Steps has been a beacon of hope for our family. Their compassionate, youth-focused approach to mental health support is exactly what young people need in today’s world. The team creates a safe, non-judgmental space where young people feel heard, valued, and empowered. The difference we’ve seen—both emotionally and mentally—has been remarkable. If you’re looking for genuine, professional support for a young person navigating life’s challenges, I can’t recommend SKB Life Steps highly enough.”
