The Natural Baby Development Course
with Dr. Caitlin Deems
MOM BODIES PHYSICAL THERAPY presents
Our children are developing at a slower rate than they ever have before…
And this has major implications on their cognitive, emotional, social, and even nutritional development.
In this age of targeted marketing and information overload, how can parents find the right tools to raise thriving babies?
With so many babies falling behind in vital skills, how can you make sure your little one is set up to meet their full potential?
What does crawling—or lack of crawling—have to do with falling behind in school and needing a hip replacement?
These are just a few of the questions that will be answered in
The Natural Baby Development Course
where you will hear from experts in the field of pediatrics on issues of physical development, speech and language, feeding and first foods, potty training and digestion, and nutrition.
Empowering parents to raise babies who thrive.

The Natural Baby Development Course
Parents today are inundated with information and are heavily marketed to.
How do parents sift through the
information overload and decision fatigue in order to decide what equipment to utilize for their babies?
Whose opinion should they be listening to when it comes to their babies’ physical, intellectual, and emotional development when the “experts” consistently change the standards of development?
In this course you will hear from clinical child development experts. This means that we actually work in close contact with parents on a consistent basis, educating them and problem-solving real-life issues that they have with their babies.
We hear their frustrations and concerns, and now we have tailored a course to address the biggest misconceptions and instruct parents in the techniques used in common infant conditions, such as torticollis, low core strength, and toe walking.
In this course we will make the science applicable so that you can make informed decisions for your baby and critically think about all the choices before you.
What you’ll learn
The mind-body connection.
Baby’s physical development is directly linked to their social, intellectual, cognitive, emotional, and even nutritional development. That’s why we rarely recommend the “wait and see” approach.
Why our babies are developing more slowly than they ever have before.
Research has confirmed this. Why is this happening? What does it mean for their future?
Common issues in infancy and childhood.
Such as torticollis, fascial restrictions, poor core strength, toe walking, and more. And how to avoid them.
The truth about positioning devices and technology.
Convenience is a trade-off with proper baby development. Don’t be deceived by expert marketing.
The Developmental Sequence
The scientific progression of skills that all neurotypical children should progress through in order to interact with the world and reach their full potential.
How to manage common issues at home.
What can you do with the equipment and time you have? When should you see a professional?

✺ Frequently asked questions ✺
-
Great question! Most child development courses are geared toward practitioners, not parents. This course designed to be parent-friendly and extremely practical.
Other child development courses tend to be medical in nature. This course is all about how babies function day to day, in the real world. It is taught by a physical therapist, so medical terminology is always given with context, and functional application is at the heart of everything that is taught.
Our goal is educate parents to make their own informed decisions, not tell them what they should be doing.
