As parents, it's easy to become focused on milestones, when your child should roll, crawl, walk, talk, or feed themselves. But child development is about so much more than checking boxes on a milestone chart.
Join Occupational Therapist Armi Grace Petersen, for this informative live class that will help you better understand how children learn, grow, and develop through everyday experiences. You'll gain practical insights into the building blocks of development and learn how to support your child's unique journey without unnecessary stress about timelines or social media comparison.
Whether you're raising a baby, toddler, or young child, you'll leave with simple, evidence-based strategies you can use in your everyday routines.
In this live class, you'll learn:
Why child development is about more than just meeting milestones
The foundational skills that support movement, play, learning, and independence
How everyday activities can promote healthy development
What signs may indicate your child could benefit from additional support
What your OT wishes every parent knew about supporting their child's growth
Every child develops at their own pace, and there is no one-size-fits-all approach to development. This class will empower you with practical knowledge, reduce overwhelm, and help you feel more confident supporting your child's unique strengths every step of the way.
