Balanced, Protected, and Informed O&M for Active Daily Living

Safe Toddles is pleased to announce a $17,500 grant from the Nicholas B. Ottaway Foundation to advance Phase III of the Blind Baby Safe Mobility Program. Building on the Foundation's continued support, this next phase will help professionals navigate insurance, IEP, and IFSP systems to secure access to Pediatric Belt Canes and advocate for children to have consistent access to their mobility devices throughout daily life, including school, sports, recreation, and community ac

Independent mobility is not learned in a single lesson. It grows through everyday experience: every playground visited, every restaurant explored, every family outing, and every walk around the neighborhood. When children with an MVI/B trust the information provided through extended touch feedback of the Belt Cane, they gain more than mobility. They gain confidence, connection, and the freedom to belong.

Extended touch feedback gives blind children the confidence to navigate school independently. Learn simple summer activities that prepare your child to wear a Pediatric Belt Cane throughout the school day.

Preparing your blind child for the first day of school starts long before the school bell rings. Discover fun summer activities that build independent mobility, confidence, and school readiness through extended touch feedback with the Pediatric Belt Cane.
