Wrapping up this handwriting series with one more important skill: POSTURAL STABILITY 💪🏼

There’s a phrase in the OT world “proximal stability = distal mobility” that essentially means when we have a stable foundation through our core & shoulders, our hands & fingers are able to move with more control & precision. That’s why activities like climbing, crawling, balancing, pushing, and pulling are so valuable when it comes to supporting handwriting development.👏🏼

Getting to build something I’m passionate about, grow at my own pace, and do things a little differently has been such a gift. I’m so dang thankful for the people who have supported me along the way. Every kind word, referral, purchase, share, and bit of encouragement means more than you know. 🫶🏼

Another week, another reminder that handwriting is so 👏🏼 much 👏🏼 more than using a paper & pencil.

This is a question that comes up quite a bit, especially when we’re talking about container time and supporting babies’ development. I obviously LOVE babywearing…but I also love all the other simple, everyday experiences that help babies grow and develop.

Sometimes I think we get so caught up in wondering if we’re doing too much of one thing or not enough of another…when really, there are many different ways to support our baby throughout the day.

And just a friendly reminder: no, there’s no such thing as holding your baby too much. Babywearing is a really great tool that allows you to keep your baby close, meet their needs, and go about your daily life together. 🤍

There are a lot of different pieces to this business, but the heart is the same: helping kids grow while supporting the people raising them.

Whether I’m supporting a family through OT or babywearing, collaborating with others, or creating products for everyday life, I want what I offer to feel meaningful and supportive.

As an OT & a mom, I love helping families find small ways to make real life feel a little easier, a little more connected, and a little more playful.

Thank you for being here and supporting this business. It means so much to get to do this work 🤎
