Infancy is a period of amazing motor development. The gravity-filled environment in which an infant must function after birth is almost completely conquered during the first year. The flexed posture of the newborn gives way to the extended posture of upright stance.
While also learning about their environment through their senses, infants quickly develop locomotor skills that lead to the important milestone of independent locomotion.
Infants in their first year will go through periods where they seemingly acquire new skills overnight. By 6-8 months, newly mobile infants become especially vulnerable to injuries in the home.
Unintentional injuries and deaths are preventable. Let Babyproofing Pittsburgh help get the job done right the first time, before accidents happen….
