Pediatric therapists reaching out to Savannah parents of children with Down syndrome

mother-childLocal pediatric occupational therapist Jaime Patillo and pediatric physical therapist Lindsay Mullen are collaborating on a book that will provide home exercises and activities to promote motor skills in children with Down syndrome.

Jaime and Lindsay know parents of children with Down syndrome are aware of the joys, rewards and challenges of raising a child with special needs. They would like to draw upon your experiences and request your participation in one of two ways.

They’re looking for parents willing to complete a short questionnaire about their experiences. Additionally, they’re looking for children between the ages of birth and 8 years of age to photograph for illustration of various activities from the book.

If you are interested in being a part of this project, or would like more information, please contact Jaime or Lindsay at: DSmotorskills@gmail.com.
