Crawling is NOT just a way to get around.

Despite what the CDC says, developmental milestones are important for your baby's future success. Crawling helps build skills needed well into the school years including:

  • Strength. The shoulders, arms, hands, core and hips all play a role in future skills like cutting, buttoning, writing, swinging and so much more.
  • Sensory Skills. The proprioception sense is responsible for body awareness, maintaining personal space, kicking a ball hard enough in soccer and more. Crawling provides valuable input for the development of this sense and stimulate receptors in the body's joints.
  • Bilateral Coordination. By using the left and the right sides in coordination while crawling develops your baby's ability to use both sides when opening a water bottle, climbing a ladder, buttoning a shirt and more. 

AKA crawling is too important for your baby's future success to skip over it or hope it happens on its own.

You have the power to make a tremendous impact on your baby's development. Let me show you how simple it cam be to get them back on track.

starNot being motivated to move despite toy/snack encouragement 

starMovements that lack fluidity and seem to appear “difficult”

starInability to roll or only roll to one side

starPreferring to always be in a vertical or straight position

starTorticollis, oral ties, reflux, colic
