Specialized center for psychomotor development of children aged 0–2

Early childhood development determines the entire future, which is why in our specialized center we focus on the most important period—the first 24 months of a child’s life. Through the unique international First-Step methodology, we monitor whether your baby is developing in line with their natural needs, and we sensitively guide them in achieving key psychomotor and sensory milestones. We believe that the parent and a stimulating environment are the most important factors influencing the quality of a baby’s development, which is why our certified child development instructor will guide you through the entire process.

Our services—from professional diagnostics and individual counselling to courses, workshops, and yoga—are provided with maximum flexibility: in person at our center, via offline home visits, or through online consultations.

Give your child professional care and an individual approach that will open the path to healthy and joyful progress.

You can find our center in the former premises of O.Z Stonožka, on the street: Pražská 2998/6, 831 01 Bratislava. We provide our services at our center, by phone, online, and also at your home.

Counselling & Practice

The First-Step methodology uses integrative diagnostics that focuses on mutual compatibility between a child’s emotional, sensory, and motor development. This diagnostics examines the child’s behavior, their responses to stimuli, and interactions with the environment—especially with parents. The goal is to identify possible developmental gaps or immature phases that may affect the child’s further development.

Based on this diagnostics, an individual therapeutic plan is created, which includes intensive work with the child and their family. This plan may include various play-based techniques and approaches tailored to the needs of a specific child. An important part of the process is also cooperation with experts from various fields, such as pediatricians, physiotherapists, speech therapists, and other specialists, to ensure comprehensive support for the child’s development.

In this way, the First-Step methodology provides a holistic approach to diagnostics and therapy, focused on supporting the child’s full developmental potential.
