🌟 So… what exactly are motor milestones? 🌟

Motor milestones are the movement skills children develop as they grow. They include gross motor skills (big movements like crawling, walking, jumping) and fine motor skills (smaller movements like grasping toys or holding a pencil).

These milestones usually follow a predictable order — one skill building on the next. For example, babies first develop head control, then learn to roll, sit, crawl, and eventually walk and run.

Tracking motor milestones helps us understand how a child’s brain, body, and nervous system are developing. Each step is a building block for independence, confidence, and play. 💜

🌟 What to Expect During Your Child’s First Coordinated Kidz Session 🌟

Your child’s initial session is 60 minutes and is designed to give us a complete picture of their movement and development. Here’s what happens:

⚽ Gross Motor Assessment: We’ll check your child’s age-appropriate motor skills, including balance, coordination, and strength.

👶 Primitive Reflex Testing: We’ll evaluate retained reflexes that can impact movement, posture, and learning.

📝 Parent Intake Form: While your child completes their assessment, you’ll fill out a short form about their health, development, and daily routines.

This helps us tailor future sessions to their unique needs.

By the end of the session, we’ll have a clear understanding of your child’s strengths, areas for growth, and the best way to support their development moving forward.

🙋‍♀️Common Symptoms of retained primitive reflexes 🙋‍♀️

Are retained primitive reflexes affecting development?
Check out the post above to see the common symptoms!

01/09/2025

✨ What are primitive reflexes? ✨

Primitive reflexes are automatic movements that babies are born with. These early reflexes help with survival in the first months of life – like sucking, grasping, or turning their head to find food.
As babies grow, these reflexes should naturally integrate (fade away) so the brain can make room for more controlled skills such as rolling, crawling, walking, and balancing.

✨ Why does this matter? ✨
If primitive reflexes don’t integrate as expected, they can affect coordination, posture, learning, and even emotional regulation later in childhood.
That’s why understanding primitive reflexes and supporting their integration is such an important part of early development. 💡👶
