Why Physical Therapy Is So Important Before Age 3

Gerritsen Beach kids grow up surrounded by nature—concrete, sand, grass, stairs, uneven sidewalks. But not all toddlers develop the strength or balance to navigate it right away.

Pediatric physical therapy supports children with:

  • Core and leg strength
  • Posture and stability
  • Movement planning for stairs, uneven ground, and parks
  • Confidence climbing, sitting, crawling, and walking
  • Safe movement in active family homes

Our sessions are fun, positive, and grounded in play—because that’s how young children learn best.

What Happens During a Session?

Every session looks different, but may include:

  • Songs and games to encourage movement
  • Toys, mats, and tools to support crawling or standing
  • Guided movement through climbing, walking, and balance tasks
  • Parent coaching to support home carryover
  • Real-world prep: stairs, curbs, or transitions from stroller to floor

We offer both home-based therapy in Gerritsen Beach and sessions at our nearby center on Avenue Z.
