I'm a Charlottesville based pediatric physical therapist specializing in oral motor therapy and infant development.
I am passionate about helping babies feel good in their bodies so they can eat, sleep, poop, and move better.
​
I believe that play is the foundation of early movement, and is an integral part in your baby's development and growth.
​
Together, we'll help your baby feel their best, so you can worry less and enjoy every precious moment more.
“My passion is helping babies build a solid foundation, allowing them to thrive while giving parents peace of mind.”
“Rachael was integral in getting us back to nursing successfully. We made quick progress, from thinking we would not be able to nurse at all to exclusively breastfeeding in just a few weeks. We are now feeding with no problems!”
