Many believe cognitive skills develop naturally, but what if the brain isn't physically growing? True development, especially for executive functions, emerges from a growing brain. Focusing only on top-down methods or skills won't work if the brain's foundation isn't built.

From latching and feeding to crawling and walking, see the key developmental milestones babies typically reach in their first year. Understanding these stages helps support their growth.

Understanding ADHD requires looking beyond just attention difficulties. At SIHC, we recognize that ADHD encompasses various aspects of a child's development, including executive function and sensory processing. Our individualized assessments allow us to tailor support based on each child's unique neurological profile, ensuring they receive the necessary tools for success. Remember, a diagnosis is just a starting point. Let's dive deeper for meaningful support.

Understanding how the right brain drives social development, emotional regulation, and nonverbal communication is key. Parent-child interaction, especially with the earliest caregiver, profoundly influences this growth. Experience the power of right brain to right brain communication.

As babies develop, their reflexes guide their movements. We see bottom-up development, followed by top-down as reflexes fade. By one year old, these reflexes should be gone, replaced by voluntary movements. This transition is a key milestone.

Did you know there's an ancient parasympathetic system linked to the freeze response? Research reveals a dorsal vagal system, predating the sympathetic nervous system, that governs this primal reaction. Later, a newer ventral system develops to help regulate both.

Attachment, primarily right-brain to right-brain communication, shapes a child's social development, emotional regulation, and nonverbal skills. Learn how caregiver interaction builds essential brain networks and fosters social awareness.

Discover how children's brains develop crucial pathways for movement and control around 12-15 months. Primitive reflexes give way to advanced postural control, leading to voluntary eye movements and a modulated nervous system. It's a remarkable journey of maturation.

In pediatric neurology, it's assumed primitive reflexes naturally vanish as the brain develops. But what if this bottom-up growth isn't complete? What if those reflexes linger, impacting development in ways we haven't considered?

Discover how primitive reflexes and early brainstem function are critical for development. Movement is key to brain growth and sensory exploration, building the brain from the ground up. Learn about the medulla oblongata's vital role in keeping us alive and regulating basic functions from birth.
