Newborn Advice: Promoting Early Development

Newborn support plays a vital role in helping babies move comfortably, settle easily, and build strong foundations to achieve their gross motor milestones.

As paediatric physiotherapists, we support parents by teaching them to swaddle safely and effectively, make tummy time enjoyable and use physical movement, sensory stimulation and baby massage to promote early development.

Choose any (or all) of our free resources below to learn ways to support your baby's physical development, sleep and wellbeing.

Testimonials

We were blessed to find you, with the treatment Alex received from you, he managed to recover from a quite severe torticollis in only two months! I would highly recommend you to anyone who’s children suffer from a similar diagnosis. We also no longer require the helmet for the flat head as the treatment helped for that as well. Thank you so, so much!

- Anastasia and baby Alex

Lisa helped my twins in the first six months to overcome tightness and restricted movement in their necks. Given they’d been a little more compressed in the womb, Archie had a slight flat head. Lisa gave us practical tips to help support both their physical development and followed up every appointment with an easy-to-follow guide which is really helpful. l highly recommend Lisa.

- Karen and babies Archie and Olivia

“We are very grateful for all of your help, without which his neck and head would not have improved to this extent.

Thank you once again for all of your help over the summer - he is a very happy little boy who smiles a lot!"

- Charlotte and baby William
