Floortime Fun™

|| Ages 6 months to 12 months || Thursdays 11-11:45Am

Floor Time Fun focuses on teaching parents hands on strategies to increase purposeful movements, interaction with toys and family, and mobility skills to allow exploration of their environment. This group is appropriate for babies who don't have a strong desire to move around and who seem behind in their motor milestones (rolling, sitting, crawling, and pulling into standing). Our licensed physical therapist will assess for any tightness or weakness that is preventing babies from exploring and hitting their milestones, and provide parent-friendly exercises that address the deficits. There will be a focus on teaching appropriate handling skills, ensuring that parents feel confident with all skills, and allowing parents to ask questions regarding their babies' development.
