Baby registry overwhelm? 🤯⁠

As a pediatric PT & mom of 3, these are the items I’ve used, recommend, and don’t think any new mama should live without! ⁠

Skip the clutter. Choose tools that grow with your baby, support movement, and make the newborn phase a little easier on YOU 🤱.⁠

👉 Save this for later when you’re building your baby registry (and shop all of my go-to picks in my Amazon storefront). ⁠

(PS: dm me for some promo codes!!)⁠

✔️ Supports healthy hip development with proper positioning⁠
✔️ Promotes upright, active sitting⁠
✔️ Encourages core + trunk strength for future milestones⁠
✔️ Keeps babies in a safe, developmentally appropriate position⁠
✔️ Grows with your little one ⁠

And the best part? It’s now available at TARGET! 🎉🤩 ⁠

Who plans to gift one this holiday season? 🙋‍♀️⁠

Parents, risky play is important! 👶💜⁠

As a pediatric PT and mom of three, I’ve learned that letting kids explore movement, even when it feels a little risky, is how they develop balance ✔️, coordination ✔️, and body awareness ✔️. ⁠

One of my favorite ways to introduce this safely is with a Pikler Ladder. I love the Bluewood Climbing Set: versatile, kid-friendly, and beautifully designed.⁠

Start with hands-on guidance for little ones, and as they grow, step back and enjoy watching them gain confidence, strength, and independence! 🧗‍♂️✨⁠

If you’ve ever felt torn between all the “dos” and “don’ts” of parenting, same 🙋🏻‍♀️.⁠

There’s so much advice out there, and most of it comes from a place of love (and maybe a little panic). But here’s the truth: every baby develops at their own pace, and my job isn’t to judge. It’s to guide 👏. ⁠

So whether it’s letting your baby explore the floor, embracing messy play, or remembering that milestones aren’t a competition… you’re doing better than you think 💜.⁠

Mamas, what’s on your betrayal list? 👇⁠

👣 Toddler shoe pick! 👣⁠

As a pediatric physical therapist, I always recommend letting little feet stay barefoot as long as possible. Shoes should only come into play when the environment calls for it (hot pavement, sharp objects, or cold surfaces).⁠

That said, when your toddler does need shoes, I love Shoes! ⁠

Here’s why:⁠
✨ Flexible soles ⁠
✨ Wide toe box ⁠
✨ Velcro closures ⁠
✨ Supportive heel ⁠

These have quickly become my go-to shoes for toddlers, keeping developmental needs in mind without sacrificing convenience or style.⁠

If you’re curious, check out Stonz Shoes and see why they’re perfect for growing feet! 💜⁠
