Baby Clinic - coming in 2026
Our monthly baby clinic is starting in January 2026! This clinic provides an opportunity for parents to have their baby’s development reviewed by a physiotherapist. Each session includes a milestone check, discussion about any concerns, and tailored tips to encourage your baby’s movement, play, and growth. It’s a great way to gain confidence, learn how to support your baby’s development through play, and pick up ideas for fun activities to try at home.
The clinic is designed to address concerns such as
- head preference
- head tilt
- flat head
- not meeting milestones
- body asymmetry
- Feeding difficulties
This clinic will take place once a month on a Saturday morning and there is limited availability. To book an appointment please get in touch by email or phone.
Research has shown that early intervention is key so if you have any concerns put your mind at ease and bring your baby along to see us. Help set your baby up for success with a strong foundation of gross motor milestones.
TESTIMONIALS
What my clients say
Heather
“Julie started working with my daughter when she was 8 months old and quickly identified weaknesses and restrictions that were making it challenging for her to roll, sit and crawl. Julie was able to suggest different activities helpful for my daughter's specific needs that also fit into what she likes to play. Today she is a very active toddler. I couldn't recommend Julie more highly.''
Hannah
''Julie has been outstanding with her support and experience, and has been able to help my son gain the strength and body confidence that he so needed. The outcome is that my son has blossomed into a little boy who wants to run, climb, spin, sit in a swing and go down a slide.
His speech and imagination have exploded, as he is now using the energy he needed to focus on walking and trying to run into learning and saying new words every single day.''
Judith
''I cannot recommend Julie highly enough. Her evidence based & achievable approach to physiotherapy are part of what makes her treatment so effective. Since working with my son he has come on leaps & bounds in regard to control of his movement & his emotions. Her sessions are engaging & her enthusiasm makes it fun for kids. My son loves Julie’s visits!''
