Mueller Pediatric Therapy is transitioning to Midwest Children's Therapy! Same great therapists, and same passion for providing quality pediatric therapy services. Our new owners, Brittany Becker (OT), and Tatum Nichols (PT) have been practicing in the Peoria area for nearly 3 years. We are the leading pediatric therapy company in Central Illinois offering a wide array of services for kids Birth-18 including physical therapy, speech therapy, occupational therapy, and audiological evaluations. Services are provided in a variety of settings including children's homes, daycares, Grandparent's homes, as well as at our clinic in East Peoria, IL. Our sensory gym is available to the public for birthday party/private event rentals, and during 'Open Gym' times (returning to the scene in February 2024). Keep your eye out for upcoming 'Quiet Hours at the Gym' for some sensory-friendly time to explore. Along with our name change, you'll notice the paint color changing at the clinic, as well as the signs and social media logos. Mueller Pediatric Therapy has such a strong presence in the community, and we cannot wait to continue the fun! With questions, feel free to contact us via social media messaging, or at (309) 282-6704.

🎵 Join us for a special open gym this Friday, November 14!

💃🏼 Admission to open gym ($5 per child) will be able to participate in a Music and Movement class!

🪘 In our Music & Movement class, children explore rhythm, sound, and motion in a playful and engaging way with Miss Julie! Music isn’t just fun — it’s a powerful tool that helps the body and brain grow together. Through singing, dancing, clapping, and instrument play, kids strengthen coordination, balance, and body awareness. 🪩 Each beat and melody encourages them to move with purpose, practice timing, and build motor skills — all while developing listening, attention, and social connection.

🕺🏽 Open gym starts at 930, and Music & Movement begins at 10!

All ages & stages of development welcome!

🌟 Ever wondered how to know if your child might benefit from physical therapy?

Every kiddo grows and moves at their own pace — but sometimes a little extra support can make a big difference! 💪

Here are a few signs your child might benefit from PT:
🏃‍♀️ They’re a little behind on milestones like crawling, walking, or jumping
🧗‍♂️ They seem clumsy or trip often
🦶 They walk on their toes or have trouble with balance
🪑 They get tired quickly during play or sports
💫 Or you just have that parent feeling that something’s “a little off”

No question is too small — we’re here to help you figure it out! 💕
Call or message us anytime to chat about your child’s movement and development.

Our Story

Mueller Pediatric Therapy, Ltd.(MPT), was founded in 2008 by Erin Mueller M.S. CCC-SLP/L, Speech-Language Pathologist. Erin grew up in a very small rural town outside of Peoria and always knew after college, she would return to the area to practice as a Speech-Language Pathologist. Her passion for working with children quickly developed and in a few short years, Mueller Pediatric Therapy was created.
