My Students

I work with the sweetest babies, toddlers and their parents! Most of my caseload is 18 months and younger so they are just starting to learn how to move, talk and interact with the world.

Some of my kiddos are delayed on their milestones, and are working on catching up to better interact with their family and environment.

Others have neuromuscular disorders, and I am here to help adapt their environment so they can access it better. Others still have orthopedic issues.

All of them are sweet, happy and so interested in the world around them! All of the babies and kiddos I work with are inherently motivated to explore, learn and move and just need a little support to get there!

My Project

The items requested in this project will help support babies’ development! The peanut balls, therapy balls and foam roller will enable parents to help their kiddos work on tummy time, sitting, hands and knees position, core strengthening and more in a modified way depending on the baby’s abilities and needs. The Upseat is an amazing seating device that will keep babies’ hips and spine in a safe, developmentally and orthopedically appropriate position while they work on sitting and feeding (and can be cleaned and passed on to other families when outgrown). The shopping cart push toy is a great way to work on walking as baby starts to take steps but isn’t quite independent yet. The cart is great for this because it can be modified: it can have heavy items like canned goods placed in it to prevent it from slipping away from the toddler if they are on a tile or wood floor, and then removed when they get more independent and start turning it while walking around the home. Light up toys are great for getting a baby’s attention to turn their head when working out neck muscle tightness, as a high portion of my caseload includes babies with torticollis. The car organizer will help me keep toys, cleaning supplies, first aid materials, educational material for parents, and more items organized as I drive from home to home. Finally, a small set of Allen wrenches will be very useful to help adjust adaptive equipment in the home for babies and toddlers with developmental disorders.
