Mission Statement

Kids + nature + occupational therapy = BEARFOOT

Description

Bearfoot OT was started in order to meet the need of Bay Area families and their kids to get outside and play in nature! We offer individual, sibling and playdate occupational therapy sessions as well as small nature-based social groups. Through outdoor nature play, we help improve various areas that are essential to healthy child development such as gross motor and fine motor skills, self regulation, sensory processing - as well as improving creativity and imagination! Bearfoot's sessions are held in Glen Park Canyon, the Presidio, or China Camp in rain, shine, warm or cold. All sessions are led by a skilled occupational therapist.
