Expert care.
A playful approach.

As pediatric specialists, we recognize the challenges and stressors of being new parents. We want to emphasize and help simplify the significance of wakeful play throughout infant development.

  • The motor skills developed during infancy lay the groundwork for future learning and self-esteem.
  • When movement is a positive experience, infants are more likely to engage in repeated practice.
  • Our established approach to fostering baby movement and play has proven successful in promoting overall development.

5 Star Service

“Tara was an absolute pleasure to work with, and I am so grateful that we found her. Our son had recurring ear infections, and needed ear tube surgery - it was all impacting his balance, and physical development including late walking. I was incredibly anxious and feeling lost, and Tara completely eased my mind and stressed load when she walked in the door. Tara was so gentle and sweet with our son, and immediately started working with him on exercises, and had him walking within weeks. She recommended things to do when she wasn’t there, toys to order to support his physical strength and development, and answered our extensive questions. Tara is professional, responsive, and really cares - she would reach out in between appointments to ask how he was doing, and ask us to send his videos etc. She has so much experience and is so knowledgeable, we felt so well taken care of. Now my son is running around and she still reaches out to check-in to see how he is doing. We are so grateful for Tara and would not hesitate working with her again in the future.”
