· Educate and support families in strategies to promote progress and carryover of skills at home.

· Develop treatment plans focused on gross motor development, balance, coordination, strength, postural control, mobility, and functional movement.

· Use play-based and task-oriented approaches to support motor milestones and independence.

· Collaborate closely with our in-house interdisciplinary team (OTs, SLPs, BCBAs) and with pediatricians, educators, and case coordinators.

· Maintain accurate documentation including evaluations, treatment notes, and progress reports.

· Participate in Early Intervention services and contribute to the development of Individualized Family Service Plans (IFSPs).

· Remain up to date with research and best practices in pediatric physical therapy.
