Day 1 of DMI with Margo

We’re so excited to have beautiful Margo back with us for another intensive therapy week! She has already achieved so much, and we can’t wait to see what she’s going to show us she can do this week.

Let’s go, Margo!

So excited to see Margo tomorrow as she arrives in Jersey ready for another intensive therapy week with me at Step by Step! 💜

After her recent stem cell treatment, I’m really looking forward to seeing where she is now and what we can achieve together over the coming week.

Our intensives are all about giving Margo lots of opportunities to explore movement, build on her emerging skills and, most importantly, celebrate every little bit of progress along the way. 💪✨

She worked incredibly hard during her last intensive, so I can’t wait to see what this week brings.

Safe journey to Jersey, Margo and family — see you tomorrow! 🥰

Look at that smile! Go Amelia!

It’s so lovely to see how proud and happy Amelia is with what she is achieving — and she absolutely should be!

Working through her arms over the ball, pushing through her legs against the wall and practising knee walking might look like lots of different activities, but they are all really important building blocks towards Amelia’s bigger goals of standing independently and walking.

Each activity is helping her develop the strength, balance, coordination, body awareness and motor planning she needs to put those bigger skills together.

For Amelia, repetition and intensive therapy are so important. Her upcoming intensive at NAPA will give her the opportunity to really build on these emerging skills, strengthen those movement patterns and help her body learn how to plan and organise increasingly complex movements.

And the best bit? She is loving what she can do!

I’m so excited to see what Amelia achieves with her NAPA intensive and where all these little building blocks take her next. Keep going, superstar!

With the solar eclipse coming up, I’ve got a supply of certified solar eclipse glasses available at the clinic to help keep our families safe. 🌞🌑 If you have an appointment before the eclipse and would like a pair, just let me know when you come in—I’m happy to give them away while stocks last. Please remember that looking directly at the Sun without proper eclipse glasses can cause permanent eye damage, so stay safe and enjoy this amazing event!
