Dynamic Babies - Coming Soon!

RHSC's Dynamic Babies Program combats "container baby syndrome" and reduces the incidence of delays in infant development.

 

Parents and children post-COVID have been subject to an experience desert that has negatively impacted early childhood development. The numbers of children needing Early Intervention Services has increased exponentially and the waiting list for services in our area is currently in the thousands.

Dynamic Babies brings vital information regarding infant play and positioning to parents so that they are able to optimize their babies’ health and development. Proper positioning and functional play interactions can positively affect muscle, motor and vestibular system development, vision and visual processing, experiential knowledge to form cognitive references, and development of functional play skills, social skills, and initial communication and emotional bonding experiences.
