Services
Private Practice
1) Individualized Early Intervention - This is what I call “purposeful parenting”!! Learn how you can facilitate each milestone of your baby’s development from day one.
- Feeding - Breast and bottle feeding, to solids introduction, through texture progression and eventually an age appropriate toddler diet.
- Development – Sleep and regulation, gross motor and fine motor milestones.
2) Developmental Play Groups – 60 to 90 minute developmental play groups, for 2-4 babies and their caregivers.
- Babies get the benefit of watching and learning from each other and practicing early social skills. I will facilitate each individual baby’s next developmental goals, and provide handouts and recommendations for purposeful play to continue at home.
- Caregivers bond and support each other through shared experience.
3) Neonatal Massage Lessons – For parents of newborn babies, as early as day one of life.
- Helps newborns with sleep, feeding, weight gain, digestion, and jaundice. There are positive impacts on your baby's immune function, nervous system, and motor development.
- Lowers parent anxiety and depression. Infant-parent attachment is enhanced. Parents experience feelings of competence & enjoyment, while baby's cues are better understood.
