What are primitive reflexes?

Primitive reflexes are automatic, instinctive movements that babies are born with. They are controlled by the brainstem and help with survival and early development (like feeding and movement). Primitive reflexes are present at birth, involuntary (not under conscious control), should disappear (integrate) as the brain matures and usually fades by 12 months, some earlier.

Why is this important?

In occupational therapy (OT), primitive reflexes are important because they affect a child’s motor skills, sensory processing, posture, attention, and learning—especially when those reflexes do not integrate (fade) at the right time.

Assessment of primitive reflexes is an area we evaluate during all evaluations as this often times can be the root cause to writing, clumsiness, emotional regulation, bedwetting and sensory difficulties.

AND so much more!

Research shows children engaged in early intervention services that are at risk have…

• Improved developmental outcomes: OT helps improve motor, sensory, cognitive, and social-emotional development in at-risk or delayed children.

• Parent empowerment: Family-centered OT leads to improved caregiver confidence, bonding, and implementation of therapeutic strategies in daily routines.

Hi! I’m Kayla Sillman, Founder and Owner of Early Bloom Pediatric Therapy. After years of experience as a pediatric occupational therapist and a mom myself, I am so proud and excited to share my business with you.

We are community-based occupational therapy clinicians serving children in their natural environment. We service children who have developmental delays, physical disabilities, sensory processing disorders, or other challenges that impact their ability to engage in everyday tasks.

Whether I join you for a play date at the park to address social skills and sensory modulation or join breakfast for feeding and utensils use at your child’s daycare/school, my hope is to link arms with your family and child, cultivating a natural therapeutic experience.

I am so excited to meet you and play together.
