Everything you need to know about helping babies crawl on their hands and knees…
all in one book.
Learning to Crawl is the third book in the Proactive Play series, written by Pediatric Physical Therapist, Dr. Lauren Baker, to help ambitious parents and pediatric providers learn how to help babies crawl on their hands and knees.
It is meant to help ambitious parents understand baby development from nine to eleven months, including getting in and out of sitting (9 month milestone), getting in and out of all fours, and crawling on hands/knees. This book is a mix of easy-to-follow and more in-depth information than is typically found in baby development books because Dr. Baker believes parents deserve to have all the information at their fingertips.
This book breaks down each piece of movement in checklists so that parents know if their infants have mastered all of the pre-crawling skills they need and rule out any movement blocks! It also covers the seven disadvantageous ‘crawling’ patterns, why they aren’t the best, what is often causing them, and how to move from them into hands and knees crawling. If you’ve ever been told skipping crawling is okay, make sure to read this book to find out all the reasons developmental therapists do not recommend skipping crawling and what negative consequences skipping crawling can have down the road.
What you’ll learn & have access to.

Testimonials
Gift A Book
Our mission is to get this knowledge into the hands of more people who take care of babies so no baby experiences a preventable milestone delay or struggles unnecessarily. The only way we help more babies is by spreading the word together.
How you can help: consider gifting a book to give to a friend, parent, library, infant/toddler program, daycare, or infant provider in your town. Gift either a paperback or ebook version; with paperbacks, consider writing a heartfelt note inside the cover.
To gift the kindle version, you need to have the person's email address and be located in the same country as them (ebooks cannot be sent across country lines).
STEP ONE: *to gift an ebook, click on the ebook purchase link in your country listed here or in the united stated linked here. Then on the right hand side you will see a “Buy as Gift” button.
STEP TWO: type in the recipient’s email address, add a note, pick a date for it to be delivered, and then hit “place your order.” *this is an example of gifting a kindle ebook from someone in the United States to someone else in the United States. If you’re in a different country, your (i) box should say, “These ebooks can only be redeemed by recipients in the [insert your country here].”
other ways you can gift a book: if you bought the book for yourself and your baby, and you and your family are confident that you are done expanding your family, write an encouraging message in the book and drop it in a little free library in your town or donate your copy to your pediatrician’s office, doula, lactation consultant, or any other provider who might be able to lend the book to their clients to help more babies.
Pro tip: if you are planning to have another babe, just stick it in your library for when they’re 7-11 months as a quick, helpful resource.
