Early Childhood Educators Day

To celebrate Early Childhood Educators Day this 4th September, we would like to thank all our amazing Early Childhood Educators for the work they do every day. Early Childhood Educators play a vital role in the lives of young children and their families by creating communities where all children can grow, learn and play with friends and peers. They create spaces where children are included and belong. Find out more about Early Childhood Educator’s Day here.

Leckey Prone Stander - Size 1

  • Standing

    • Description

    The Leckey Pronestander is a prone (forward-tilted) upright standing frame suitable for a child who needs support to stand but may not be able to tolerate a fully upright position.

    Standing frames can be used for children who are unable to stand independently.

    The Leckey Pronestander has a choice of five prone positions from 45° to 85°.

    Inclusion Possibilities

    • Can provide opportunities for children to participate independently with peers in experiences where children are standing
    • Can be used for individual and/or group experiences
    • Supports the child’s body allowing the upper limbs to be free
    • Allows the child to see and access the environment at the same height as their peers when standing

    Things to consider

    • Use of standing frames should only occur for periods of time where the child’s peers are also standing
    • Educators should consult with therapists and parents about the amount of time appropriate for use
    • Educators need to plan how standing frames will be used in terms of staffing, routines and experiences within the care environment to maximise children’s participation in the program and interaction with peers
