Our home visit this week went really well! We came up with two different activities that we had Mom do. One to work on passing toys from one hand to the next, and the other to help N strengthen her core muscles. Mom did a great job and caught on to the activities quickly. As we were practicing during the home visit, we could already tell that N was progressing and that she was catching on as well. As mom did baby sit-ups with N, we could already see N contracting her core muscles and strengthening them. I am excited to see the progress that N makes in the next few weeks.
I do not have any questions or concerns, as it has been so great working with the family and with N. Mom just wants N to progress and wants her to sit up. So everything we do is geared toward that. Mom is not afraid to ask us questions or let us know what is going on with N's growth. I appreciate that she is so open with us, because we are able to really cater to their concerns and their needs.
