Zier Institute Pediatric Occupational Therapy We follow a relationship-based, developmental approach to therapy. Contact us today to find out how we can help your child.

Zier Institute is a pediatric occupational therapy clinic focused on the treatment of children with autism, sensory integration disorders, ADD/ADHD and learning and emotional challenges. This approach is built on the belief that development occurs within the context of the parent-child relationship. From this point the child develops the capacity to self-regulate, share attention, be reciprocal, explore and learn.

Enjoy the second of our six-part summer blog series. This week, pediatric occupational therapist Katy Barnes discusses DIR/Floortime-informed insights into motor milestones for parents of babies and toddlers.

Don't wait. If your child is not meeting the milestones for their age, or if you think there could be challenges with how your child plays, learns, speaks, acts, and moves, share your concerns. Early intervention is crucial as the first few years of life are vital for brain development and establishing foundational skills. Contact us today with questions: info@zierinstitute.com

Motor milestones, such as crawling, cruising, and walking, are a window into your childโ€™s developmental journey. In occupational therapy, movement is foundational to all areas of development.
