First Time Mum's Chat

How a Paediatric Occupational Therapist Can Help Families Thrive


Listen Later

A lot of the parents that I talk to via my baby massage classes, ask me whether everything is going as it should with their little one's development. I've been on the lookout for an expert to talk to who knows their stuff when it comes to baby development and in this week's episode of First Time Mum's Chat, I'm chatting with Pediatric Occupational Therapist, Munira Adenwalla.


Munira talks about how she helps babies to be able to get in and out of positions so they are comfortable with their bodies and explains how she contributes to their development by helping with all the little movements required to get up to sitting, standing and eventually crawling and walking.


During our chat you'll hear us talk about:-

  • Why it's so important not to rush your baby to be doing their developmental milestones and let them take their own time.
  • How a pediatric occupational therapist can help when babies are not meeting their developmental milestones or when your gut feeling is telling you that something isn't right.
  • How a pediatric occupational therapist helps babies that are struggling with coming into sitting and crawling positions and to be more comfortable, relieving tension in their bodies.


And so much more....
