BOSTON, Mass. /Massachusetts Newswire/ — Boston startup Rahoo Baby, a baby product company made up by a team of physicians and pediatric therapists, is launching “Rahoo U,” an online classroom for parents. Launching January 25, Rahoo U teaches parents the most effective techniques for helping babies master the skills they need at each stage of development, and offers guidance on how parents can incorporate these techniques into their daily routines.
Courses, which cost only $49.99 are led by a team of licensed pediatric therapists with experience from the most competitive hospitals and clinics in the Boston area.
As developmental delays become increasingly more common, today’s parents know the importance of learning and overall brain development during a child’s first year of life. Unfortunately, though, 90% of parents still don’t receive support from qualified healthcare professionals who know how to provide the most developmentally rich early learning experiences for infants.
In the course “Mastering Baby Milestones,” parents are taught specific, clinically-validated activities and techniques that help babies master the skills they most often struggle to develop on their own. Topics covered include skills such as crawling, independent sitting, and tummy-time (which 75% of parents report as a stressor at home). Mastering Baby Milestones also contains discussions about the subjects parents don’t learn about until it’s too late, such as how to prevent flat-head syndrome, and why it’s so important that babies learn to move!
“As pediatric therapists, we’ve spent nearly a decade working hands-on with infants, and coaching parents on how to get the most out of their baby’s first months of development,” says Co-founder and CEO Matt Breen. “We’re focused on bringing this information to parents from all walks of life.”
As Americans spend more of their lives online in new ways, the team saw an opportunity to create Rahoo U. “The best part is being able to reach more families without having to leave their homes. Our goal is to make sure that access to early childhood development tools becomes more equitable, and this is just a starting point,” Breen adds.
