For a child who walks with the trunk flexed forwards and the head down, a walker that sits in front of them makes the posture worse. The Kaye posture control walker puts the frame behind the child instead, so the natural response is to stand up and step forwards into space.
Clinically that posterior position tends to bring better upright alignment, a longer stride and a more even walking rhythm, and children often move further before they tire. One way rear wheels stop the frame running away downhill or rolling backwards as the child loads it, which gives a cautious walker the confidence to commit to a step.
The frame is light, height adjustable as the child grows, and folds down for the car and for storage at school. A range of frame sizes and add ons such as forearm supports, hip positioners and seats means the walker can be built around the child’s current level and altered as they progress.
