Plagiocephaly, or flat spots on a newborn's head are more common that we would like to think.

Flattening can be caused by:
💛 position in pregnancy
💛 stress during the birth
💛 head turn preferences
Nothing is wrong with your little one, they just need some extra support!
✨ Soft tissue release from head to toes supporting baby's natural movement
✨ Offer guidance on positioning and tummy time for better mobility.
✨ Come see how CST works in real life and discover if it’s the right fit for your family.

Ever wonder what your little one is really trying to tell you? In the first five minutes with a baby, I'm looking for subtle cues in their nervous system and body language that reveal so much more than just tension. From head control to how easily they startle, these observations guide us in supporting their regulation and overall well-being.

Want to learn how to spot these at home? Comment 'Baby' and I'll send you the details for our next session!

Tummy time isn't just about building strength it's about your baby feeling safe, connected, and ready to explore the world. 🌿

In this class, we work on:
✨ Time on baby's tummy (yes, that too!)
✨ Understanding your baby's nervous system
✨ Helping baby feel safe and connected
✨ Teaching YOU how to read what you're seeing
✨ Regulating your own nervous system as a parent

Because when you understand what's happening inside your baby, everything changes.

If your baby screams the second their belly hits the floor, you're not doing it wrong. Some babies genuinely have a harder time with it, and here's why 👇

🍼 Low tolerance for new positions — tummy time is one of the first times baby's head isn't being supported by you or a surface. That's a big ask for tiny neck muscles.
🍼 Tight or tense muscles — some babies carry extra tension (often from positioning in the womb or birth), which makes this position uncomfortable rather than just unfamiliar.
🍼 Overstimulation — being on their belly changes what they see, hear, and feel all at once. For some babies, that's a lot to process at once, and crying is how they tell us.
🍼 It's genuinely hard work — tummy time is basically a workout for a baby with zero strength training. Of course it's frustrating at first!
The good news? None of this means you should skip it, but it just means how you introduce it matters. Shorter, more frequent sessions and the right support can make a huge difference!!

Comment BABY and I'll send you my go-to tips for making tummy time way less miserable for both of you 🤍

Nobody hands you a manual for those first 12 weeks but there's ONE thing that would've changed everything for me (and for so many moms I work with) 👇

The 4th trimester isn't just about baby adjusting to the world... it's about YOU adjusting too. And that's not something to push through... it's something to be supported through.

If this hit home, comment BABY and I'll send you more on how we support moms and babies through this exact stage 🍼

Co-regulation doesn't have to look like a perfectly timed routine or a special technique you have to learn.

It looks like you being present.

When your baby is overwhelmed, their nervous system is literally searching for yours. They can't self-regulate alone yet, that part of their brain isn't developed. So they borrow YOUR calm to find their own.

That's it. That's co-regulation.

✨ It's your slow exhale when you pick them up
✨ It's the warmth of your chest against theirs
✨ It's your steady heartbeat they've known since the womb
✨ It's you staying regulated so their nervous system has somewhere safe to land

You don't need to do more. You don't need to be more.

Your presence IS the medicine.

Your baby isn't rejecting tummy time, Mama. 🤍

Their nervous system is trying to tell you something.

After birth (especially a tough one), babies can carry tension in their neck and shoulders the exact muscles tummy time asks them to use.

So when they cry? That's not a behavior problem. That's a stressed nervous system asking for support.

✨ The question isn't "how do I get them to do more tummy time?"
✨ It's "what does their nervous system need first?"

You're not doing it wrong. You just needed this information. 🤍

If this is your baby, I have an in-person Tummy Time Class coming up in Colorado Springs this July — link in bio to grab your spot. You can also find a link there to work with me online.

I'll see you there. 🤍

Your baby's nervous system isn't "good" or "bad" it's communicating. 💛

A regulated baby often appears calm, curious, connected, and able to recover from everyday challenges. An overwhelmed baby may seem extra fussy, struggle with sleep, avoid eye contact, or have a hard time settling. These aren't behaviors to "fix"—they're signals that your baby's nervous system may need more support.

The beautiful part? Regulation is a skill that grows through connection, movement, and the right support. 🌿

If you're looking for hands-on guidance to help your little one thrive, I'd love to help.

✨Our Summer Tummy Time! Class begins July 21st and is designed to help you build confidence while supporting your baby's development and nervous system in a fun, encouraging environment.

Whether you're just starting tummy time or looking for new ways to support your little one, this class is for you.

🤍 Tap the link in my bio to save your spot in the July 21st Summer Tummy Time! Class, book a private session, or explore all the ways we can work together. I can't wait to meet you and your little one!

Your baby is communicating with you long before they can use words. 🤍

Their body language can give you important clues about how their nervous system is feeling and what they may need from you.

Here are 5 signs to pay attention to:

1. Constant arching or stiffening
This can be a sign that your baby's nervous system is feeling overwhelmed or they're struggling to find comfort.

2. Always wanting to be held
While completely normal, it can also be your baby's way of seeking regulation through your touch, movement, and heartbeat.

3. Difficulty settling or staying asleep
A dysregulated nervous system can make it harder for babies to relax into restful sleep.

4. Avoiding eye contact or looking away often
Sometimes babies look away because they're overstimulated and need a break to process their environment.

5. Clenched fists, tense body, or frequent startling
These can be signs that your baby's body is working hard to stay regulated and may benefit from gentle support.

Remember none of these signs automatically mean something is wrong. They simply offer insight into how your baby's nervous system may be experiencing the world.

✨ If you're noticing these signs and want extra support understanding your baby's nervous system, comment "BABY" below, and I'll send you more information about how I can help.
