Sensory Play Made Easy! ✨

Looking for a fun and developmental activity for your little one? Try creating a sensory bin at home! 🪣

Here’s what you’ll need:

Base materials: Rice, pasta, beans, or play sand (affordable options from local grocery store or even Dollar Tree).

Add-ins: Small plastic animals, building blocks, or pom poms (Amazon and craft stores have great sets).

Tools: Measuring cups, spoons, or mini scoops (kitchen section at Dollar Tree, Walmart, or IKEA).

Container: A clear plastic bin with a lid (Sterilite or IKEA bins work perfectly!).

💡 Pro Tip: Rotate the fillers each week to keep playtime fresh and exciting.

Not only does this spark curiosity, but it also helps with fine motor skills, problem-solving, and sensory awareness.

Hygiene is SO important for your child's development!

And it should be taught first at home 🧡

Teaching children basic hygiene and grooming can be a fun part of the day and it is essential to keeping them healthy. Children are best taught gradually and consistently.

Teach and remind them every day until it becomes their routine as they grow.

Are you struggling with deciding what things your kids are ready to do? We can help! 👏🏽

We review your child's growth and development during our in person visits and during telephone developmental check ins. Tap the link in bio to find out more info!

Parent shaming happens ALL the time! 😞

And parents are already beyond stressed, so the judgment can take a toll on their mental health!

Instead of judging other parents, respect their differences (especially if they are not harmful to the child) and make them feel safe in your presence! 🧡

1 in 10 moms say they have no one to turn to for emotional support, so wouldn't it be awesome if you were that person!

Here at HHP, we often talk about the village needed, and we hope that sharing these stats will help more people be open to creating safe spaces for new parents embracing this journey of parenthood! That's why we created our all NEW course to help parents in the newborn stage of life!

This is real talk from a pediatrician who gets it. No fluff—just the essentials you need to feel empowered, informed, and ready.

When is the last time you read with your kids? 📚

Reading is so essential to your child's development! We encourage you start right away, and many families begin while baby is in utero! If you aren't sure why reading is so important, here are some fun facts:

📘 Reading helps develop language skills. When kids read, they are exposed to new words and phrases. They also learn how to read sentences and paragraphs.

📘 Reading helps improve comprehension skills. When kids read, they have to understand what they are reading. This helps them develop comprehension skills, which are essential for learning and understanding information.

📘 Reading helps build imagination and creativity. When kids read, they are transported to different worlds and meet different characters.

📘 Reading helps kids learn about the world around them. When kids read, they learn about different cultures, different places, and different people. This helps them learn about the world around them and become more well-rounded individuals.

📘 Reading helps kids develop a love of learning. When kids enjoy reading, they are more likely to continue learning throughout their lives. This can help them succeed in school, in their careers, and in life in general.

Reading is a fun and educational activity that can benefit kids in many ways. If you have kids, encourage them to read often. You may be surprised at how much they enjoy it!
We hope you take a moment today and read with your child!

This is what life looks like when you're a mom who is also running a business 🥰

The behind the scenes prep to film new courses, create new information for our community and so much more... included a tiny helper drawing in the background so her presence was near!

This is why I created Healthy Home Pediatrics, this is my why! This practice has grown so much since our founding in 2019 🧡

We have an amazing team and our patients are lovely. We opened our office space in a beautifully renovated 700 square foot space in my garden almost 2 years ago now.

We have revamped our inquiry process using this new and improved inquiry form found on our website.
