My daughter was diagnosed with a quadriplegic cerebral palsy just under a year ago. She's just started school nursery and is doing fantastic. She has a Kaye walker to get around and tries to be very independent. I came on here to see if anyone has any further ideas apart from the general physio and OT ideas to try and get her taking her first steps independently. Are there any treatments anyone has tried out that have seemed to have given their child that extra push?
Thanks in advance

Hi Lyndsey, welcome to the community!
The Parents and Carers section might be a good place for you to start, there are so many great people on this community.
We also have a great Parents Guide that might be of help to you.
Do take a look around the community and get involved in the discussions!
