Early Brain Development, Explained for Parents
Guiding parents through the rapid changes of the first months and showing how everyday routines support strong brain–body foundations.
Heather worked with our daughter for a number of months and was awesome!
Super calm and professional, and our daughter enjoyed her time with Heather. She took the time to go through the steps and processes with us and was very detailed to help us understand the reasons why.
Absolutely would recommend Heather!
He always gets compliments on how attentive and alert he is, and I believe that's thanks to your course, which I've followed since he was born.
I don't follow many experts because a lot of them are questionable ... YOU and a few others are the BEST.
Found Heather’s program when my daughter was 4-5 months.
She is now 2.5. And she is absolutely brilliant.
We hear it all the time from daycare (and other parents at daycare) her language skills are really really good.
Hi, I’m Heather.
My work began years ago when two of my children struggled with reading. They were bright and curious, but something in their early foundation needed support. I spent a long time searching for answers, and that search led me to rare, brain-changing therapies that created real progress. It changed the way I understood how children learn.
In the years that followed, I worked with many other children who faced similar challenges: difficulties with focus, coordination, reading, and confidence. I started seeing the same patterns again and again. The gaps were showing up much earlier than anyone realized.
Later, I trained more deeply in brain and sensory foundations, brain-body integration, and primitive reflex work. That training helped me understand how early sensory and motor experiences build the brain’s foundation long before the visible stages of development. Once I saw the full picture, I knew parents needed clearer guidance from the very beginning.
The Baby Moves Method grew out of everything I learned working with children and studying early brain development. It’s a science-based roadmap for parents during the early window when the brain grows at its fastest pace.
Why I Focus on the Earliest Months
Today, I teach families around the world how simple daily routines can support strong brain-body foundations and make the early months feel more understandable and less overwhelming.
Parents aren’t short on effort. They’re short on clear, science-based information about what actually shapes early brain pathways. My goal is to make this knowledge accessible, manageable, and practical for everyday family life.

"Your course has been incredibly helpful, and I'm really benefiting from it.
Thanks again for all you do to support mothers like me (FTMs) and help us feel empowered to care for our babies from Day 1!"

Topics I Often Speak About
"What I’ve learned raising four children with four very different brains"
When my children struggled with reading, it ignited a passion in me to understand the true spectrum of how we learn. I moved beyond the labels and discovered that a "one-size-fits-all" approach to education was failing them.
My journey led me to three powerful, brain-changing therapies: Brain Gym®, the Gift of Dyslexia program, and an alternative approach to Vision Therapy, that were pivotal in rewiring their learning pathways.
These methods didn't just teach them to read; they unlocked their unique, natural talents. Now, I'm driven to share how we can move beyond the struggles and help every child learn in a way that honors their individual, amazing brain.

GET IN TOUCHWhat Parents Noticed After Supporting Their Baby’s Early Foundation
I started this program when my baby was about 5 months and 2 weeks before crawling. Even though he is crawling, I can still do the activities!
Also, the instructor is super helpful and approachable. I've reached out via Instagram with questions, and she responds quickly. You can tell she cares about her customers and babies!

I'm so grateful I discovered Heather's program before my baby girl was born. As a first time mom, I wanted to learn everything I could to ensure my girl got the best start to her life.
Her program gave me so many ideas that I use daily with my daughter. She did the extensive research so you don't have to. Thank you Heather for this crucial information!
