In the first year of life, your baby will undergo an amazing transformation from a tiny, helpless newborn with no purposeful movement, into a capable, fast moving toddler.

Movement is learnt in a pre-determined, predictable order with one milestone building upon another. Each movement milestone is a critical step for the one that follows after. Much like a pyramid, if the base is not solid, then everything that is placed on top will be compromised.

Our modern lifestyle has seen many of us shift away from living as nature intended. Most babies today lack the necessary activity and handling in the first year of life to optimise their development. We no longer develop according to the biological ‘norm’ with many babies skipping some milestones altogether or attempting others before their little bodies are ready. This can cause developmental delays and problems later in life with posture and predisposition to injuries.

The good news, as a parent you have enormous capacity to positively influence your baby’s physical development. Simple things that even most health professionals don’t know which are easy to learn and implement. Come on a journey with me and learn how to help your little one thrive and lay a stable foundation for life. I promise, it will be one of the best investments you ever make!

About Me


Hi, my name is Suzanne. I’m passionate about helping parents to give their little ones the best possible start to life. For over 18 years I’ve worked in injury rehabilitation, helping people to return to function after injury and illness. After many years of rehabilitating my clients (and myself), I realised that in many cases, injuries and physical dysfunction have an origin in the early years. I have come to understand how critical the first year of development is in laying a foundation for physical soundness through our whole life. I want you to understand this too so that you can help your child avoid the plague of injuries and postural problems affecting children 

and adults today. There is so much you can do as a parent to maximise your baby’s physical development in their first year. Simple things that even most health professionals don’t know, which are easy to learn and implement.

What I Offer


Online education to coach you through each step in your baby’s first year of life and how to help them be their best.

I’ll help you:

  • know what movements and positions baby should be doing and when
  • understand how to support your baby to achieve optimal movements and postures
  • be confident in handling your baby in a way which supports their physical development
  • avoid the common pitfalls with baby ‘equipment’ and save money in the process
  • setup your baby’s environment to promote optimal physical development
  • understand what common cultural expectations and ‘norms’ are actually harmful for your baby’s physical development and how to step around them (especially with well meaning relatives!)

I decided to start offering online education after supporting many clients through their child’s first years and watching them have wonderful success. My clients noticed observable differences in how their babies were moving compared to other babies of the same age. They too, wanted to share this knowledge with their families and friends but weren’t able to find any resources that would step parents through the process in a systematic and easy to understand way. So I created My Active Baby and now you can give your baby the gift of optimal development too!
