When we first found out our baby needed a helmet for his flat head, I was really nervous. I worried about how he would adjust, if he would be uncomfortable, and if it was the right decision. Now that we’re done with treatment, I can say it was so much easier than I expected! My baby wore his helmet for almost two months, and he adjusted to it so quickly. It became part of him, and he was able to sleep, play and move around like nothing had changed. The results have been amazing, and we’re so happy we decided to move forward with it. Stacy was incredible throughout the whole process. She was always so kind, and she took the time to answer all of our questions. You can tell she truly cares about the babies and their families, and that made such a difference for us. Thank you, Stacy and the entire team, for taking such great care of Ollie. We’re so grateful for your ongoing support through this journey!

I am so happy with my decision to take my son to PT at Carolina Kinder. Stacy at the Carmel location is incredible! Though we initially went for head shape around 4 months, we continued to go for 6 more months to work through weight shifting and imbalance as my son began rolling, sitting up, crawling, and pulling to stand. Now at 10 months we do not need to go back! All the exercises and assistance have paid off immensely. Though I continued to go, I never once felt I was being strung along or told to come back when I didn’t really need to. This is evidenced by his case being closed now at 10mo. In hindsight, even if I hadn’t initially gone in for head shape concerns, I would’ve wanted to go to PT anyway because I swear my son unlocked new milestones/skills after every appointment. I’m proud of myself for doing this for him & I highly recommend Carolina Kinder.
I really enjoy working with Stacy. She is incredibly kind, patient, and caring with my baby. She has a wonderful way of connecting with children and makes every session comfortable and engaging. Most importantly, we can see progress almost before our eyes. Thanks to her professionalism, guidance, and encouragement, my baby is becoming stronger and more confident every day. We are very grateful to Stacy for her dedication, support, and genuine care.
We have loved working with Bri! She is so calm and patient!
Choosing Carolina Kinder Development was one of the greatest decisions we have made since having our baby. Not only has it been crucial for early development, but we have been given tools for the long haul! Specifically, Maria has helped us more than we knew we needed, and has become a great friend along the way! We suggest anyone looking for OT support to reach out!
Our experience with Lizzie and the team here was absolutely fantastic. She was so great with us and our little one, and made us feel so informed and confident throughout the process. We weren’t sure what to expect with our son needing to wear a band to correct his flat side, but after the first appointment we knew we had made the right decision. Don’t hesitate to bring your little one here, you will be so happy you did.
Such a great experience, been working with them for a few months and every session they go above and beyond! Millicent is so knowledgeable, kind, patient, and helpful, and the whole team at this location is fantastic! We can't recommend them enough!
I cannot say enough great things about Kelly Kelsey (OTR)! My daughter needed help with some feeding issues and tension from birth. I saw so many improvements in our daughter just after the first visit. I am so thankful to Kelly and appreciative of everything they do!
Had such a good experience with Carolina Kinder Development! Kelsey really helped my daughter with her tongue tie and neck tension. She answered all my questions and gave such good information. So thankful for her and the team!
We have had the most fantastic experience with Millicent and Carolina Kinder- she has been absolutely wonderful with our son, working with correcting his head shape which has been improving, is fantastic with kids, and is thorough and detailed. Her care for our son is so apparent and would recommend her to anyone!
