🍀 Helping your little lucky charm turn both ways! 🍀
Some babies develop a head-turn preference (also called torticollis) and tend to look to one side more than the other. The goal is to encourage them to turn toward the side they like less to help stretch and strengthen their neck.
✨ Simple things you can try at home:
👶 Switch up diaper changes – Change which side your baby’s head is on at the changing table so they have to turn toward their less-preferred side. This also gives their neck a gentle stretch.
🛏 Move the bassinet position – Try positioning the bassinet so your baby has to turn toward the side they don’t prefer to look at you.
🍼 Encourage the weaker side during feeding – Position feedings so your baby turns their head toward the side they don’t like as much.
😊 Use yourself as motivation – Sit, talk, and play with your baby from the side they avoid so they want to turn their head to see you!
💚 Tummy time every day – Tummy time helps stretch and strengthen neck muscles. Aim for about 1 hour total per day (broken up throughout the day!).
If your baby is showing a strong side preference, the PTs and OTs at Kid Sense Therapy would love to help! Early support can make a big difference.
✨ Reach out to learn more about ways to support your baby at home.

🌟 PT Spotlight: Meet Carly! 🌟
Say hello to Carly, one of our amazing physical therapists here at Kid Sense! 👋
Carly earned both her undergraduate and Doctor of Physical Therapy degrees from Gannon University in Erie, PA. Since graduating, she’s dedicated her career to helping kids grow, move, and shine! 💪✨
When she’s not in the clinic, you can find Carly getting creative with crafting projects or enjoying walks with her dog 🐶🎨. And for a fun fact — she’s recently started learning how to roller skate! 🛼 (We’re all impressed by her balance on and off the job!)
We’re so lucky to have Carly’s positive energy, creativity, and passion for helping kids reach their goals! 💙

💙 PT Month Spotlight: Josie! 💙
Today we’re celebrating Josie, one of our incredible Physical Therapists here at Kid Sense! 🌟
Originally from Upstate New York, Josie earned her Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Nazareth College of Rochester before heading south to pursue her passion for pediatrics. During grad school, she completed the prestigious LEND Fellowship (Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental and Related Disabilities) through the University of Rochester Medical Center — a nationwide program dedicated to improving healthcare for children and young adults with neurodevelopmental disabilities. 🧠✨
Josie has worked with children of all ages with a wide range of needs — from orthopedic and neurological conditions to genetic, chronic pain, and developmental challenges. She’s also skilled in treating kiddos with torticollis, cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, Spina Bifida, and Autism Spectrum Disorder. Her sessions are filled with patience, creativity, and fun — because progress should always come with a smile! 💪💙
Fun fact: Josie is also a certified pelvic floor therapist, expanding her expertise to help children and families in even more meaningful ways. 🌸
When she’s not in the clinic, you can find Josie exploring the outdoors, tackling DIY projects, walking her dog Stanley, or enjoying a Two Toosters treat by the beach. 🐾🌊
We’re so thankful for Josie’s dedication, knowledge, and kindness — she makes a difference every single day! 💙
