StepsNest is home to Fabi & Ares — a therapeutic animated series for young children with autism, built one step at a time on evidence-based developmental frameworks.
Two characters. One story. The dog leads first — because the child cannot yet. Over time, that changes.
Every episode has a parallel guide for you. Same structure as your child's session. Released at the same time. Always free. Martin is not a talking manual — he is a parent who gets it.
We release in sequence. The next path comes when this one is validated — not before. Every episode arrives with Martin's guide.
Standard episodes and Martin's guides are permanently free for every family — because the families who need this most are often the ones who cannot afford another subscription.
The full Fabi & Ares episode, in the correct therapeutic sequence. Free permanently.
One short video per path. Releases with each episode. Explains what happened and what to do next.
Join the community, share your observations, and be part of what gets refined next.
After each episode, we ask you to observe — not rate. Real observation data from real families is what tells us whether each path is doing what it was designed to do.
Takes 3 minutes. Fills in after watching. This is the data that shapes everything.
The sequence never changes — we always follow the therapeutic order. But your observations help us understand how each path lands, which variants families need most, and what to refine before the next path goes into production. This is not a review. It is clinical observation, done by you.
