Neonatal Occupational Therapy

  • Was your baby born premature?

  • Are you worried about your baby’s development?

  • Does your baby seem to be delayed in attaining their milestones like holding up their head, rolling over, sitting, crawling or walking?

  • Does your baby appear very floppy and underactive?

  • Do you compare them to other babies and find that they seem to be slower than the rest?

  • Is your baby a fussy eater and does it take you ages to get them to eat?

  • Does your baby appear to cry for no particular reason and is easily frightened?

  • Has your doctor expressed concern regarding their delayed development?

​

If any of these answers is yes, then you may need an Occupational therapist to assess and treat your baby.
