YOUR BABY'S NEXT SMALL STEP
 YOUR BABY'S NEXT
SMALL STEP:

Standing, Balancing & Walking with Confidence

Your baby is so close to taking those first steps—or maybe already cruising and just needs a little support to walk independently. Wherever they are on the wobbly walker spectrum, this stage is all about balance, transitions, and building confidence (for both of you).

Let’s make walking feel natural—not rushed, forced, or scary.

Here’s what’s next for your baby:

Learning to Get Down Safely:

Getting down from standing is just as important as pulling up. Without this skill, babies crash instead of land.

 👉 Here’s a smart way to practice it

Balance Work: 

Before those first steps comes the magic of balance. Add playful challenges that help your baby shift weight and control their center of gravity.

 👉 Try this fun walking prep activity

Proper Support for Hand-Held Walking:

Holding your baby’s hands way up overhead actually throws off their balance and posture. Instead, support them low—by their shoulders.

👉 Learn why this makes such a difference

✨ Pro tip: Walking isn't a race. It’s a journey of balance, body awareness, and trust-building.
