DO BABIES AND TODDLERS REALLY NEED IT?

Yes! Everyone with a birth story needs this work. Think about it, positions in utero, vaginal, c-section, long labors, fast pushing, forceps…it all tells a story of fascial strain around the body.


WHAT TO EXPECT?

Sessions will look different depending on your child’s age. The goal for everyone is to keep your child calm and receptive, and out of fight or flight. We are going to follow you child’s lead and listen to them and their body. Please remember this work is not forced, and that’s why it works.

For baby’s, some baby’s might sleep, others they might be awake the entire time, both are okay. If baby gets fussy we will change positions, stand up, walk around, possibly have you comfort hold/nurse/feed and then we can continue the work. .

This is an interactive session between parent, baby/toddler, and the provider. Our goal is to empower you as the parent to do some of these things at home. We are a team, and yes that means you will get homework.


SHOULD I SCHEDULE OFFICE OR IN HOME FOR MY TODDLER?

We do recommend in home sessions for some toddlers. We used to say “ALL”, but we’ve learned that each toddler is different. Some kids are more comfortable at home, and we can use your sink as a wonderful sensory tool/help. We have other kids who adapt really well in office.

If you do come in office, we welcome favorite toys, stuffed animals, and even snacks. However, we do ask that you leave sweets and tablets in the car or at home. We believe this work to be incredibly powerful for helping regulate fight-or-flight, and we want to focus on calming the body/mind. Whether you choose in office, or at home, we are excited to work with your family!


HOW OFTEN SHOULD I SCHEDULE?/ WHY DO YOU HAVE PACKAGES?

Ideally we would like to see clients once a week.

We have packages as we highly recommend starting out with five sessions because consistency is key! This allows our providers to not only track progress, but also spend time giving homework (for children). We understand we are not there everyday, which is why we feel homework is a key ingredient to this work.
