All About Baby Begin

Jennifer Todd-Barnard, OTR

Baby Begin was started by Jennifer Todd-Barnard, OTR out of a passion to educate families on how to keep their new babies’ head round.

She has been a pediatric Occupational Therapist for over fifteen years. For eight years, she was involved in treating infants with plagiocephaly (misshapen head) and torticollis (tight neck). She worked for Cranial Technologies, Inc., which is the leading provider of cranial molding helmets. She has treated thousands of patients and been involved in educating physicians, families and other therapists in the community.

Jennifer possesses the unmatched experience and knowledge about this common and often preventable condition. There is a very small window of opportunity to affect babies and their head shape. Jennifer is dedicated to educating parents and physicians alike on how to minimize the risk of plagiocephaly. Skull deformities have numerous medical and social implications. She would like to see every baby have the opportunity to begin life with a beautiful round head.
