Welcome to Path to grow pediatric therapy
At Path to Grow Pediatric Therapy, we build meaningful relationships with families to provide effective care for their infants and children. Through dedicated one-on-one attention and consistent communication, we help infants and children develop crucial skills while giving parents the tools and confidence they need to support their child’s journey. Our commitment to quality care and developmental progress creates an environment where both children and families can thrive.
Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapy supports your child’s ability to participate in everyday routines with confidence, comfort, and independence by addressing infant feeding and oral function, developmental milestones, sensory processing, and daily life skills. The goal is to empower families with practical, easy-to-carry-over strategies that support independence in daily routines like feeding, dressing, and play.
infant massage Classes
Infant massage is a gentle, connection-based practice that supports your baby’s development while strengthening your bond. In this class, you’ll learn how to follow your baby’s cues, create meaningful moments of connection, and use nurturing touch to support regulation, comfort, and overall well-being. Infant massage can help with sleep, digestion, and calming fussy periods—while also building confidence in understanding their baby. Available in group settings or in 1-on-1 classes.
TummyTime!™ Classes
The TummyTime!™ Method is a research-based approach that redefines how we support babies in tummy time by focusing on connection, responsiveness, and following your baby’s cues. This approach emphasizes quality over quantity, helping babies build strength and skills through meaningful interaction. Available in group settings or in 1-on-1 classes.

Javier Jimenez, M.S., OTR/L, CIMI
Owner, Lead Occupational Therapist
Hi, I’m Javier Jimenez, and I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a pediatric occupational therapist specializing in infant and child development, with expertise in addressing infant feeding skills, tethered oral tissues, motor milestones, sensory processing, and social-emotional growth. I believe in meeting every child where they are, using playful, family-centered strategies that make therapy feel natural, joyful, and effective. My goal is to empower parents with practical tools, confidence, and encouragement to support their child’s development—at home, at play, and in everyday routines. As both a therapist and someone who understands the hopes and worries that come with raising a little one, I’m passionate about creating a warm, supportive space where families feel seen, heard, and guided every step of the way.
