Infant Development Classes
Are you looking to boost your baby’s development?
Does your baby cry or get fussy when placed on their belly?
Do you want to make tummy time FUN for you and your baby?
Pediatricians emphasize the importance for babies to spend time on their bellies. But for some of our little ones, staying on their tummy can be hard, but it doesn’t have to be hard!
The Tummy Time Group Class provides 2 weeks of guided, parent-led classes facilitated by a pediatric occupational therapist. Each tummy time class will be centered around how to help your baby love tummy time. Parents will be guided step by step on how to help their baby move their bodies in and out of tummy position. We will engage in activities that build's your baby's brain through movement. Our Tummy Time class provides simple and practical ways to infuse tummy time into your baby's routine and make it fun for you and your baby! This is also a great opportunity to connect with other parents!
