Why a Pediatric Belt Cane?

The independent walking milestone is essential to developing preschool readiness skills. By the age of two, children need to feel confident that they can walk independently. Children whose vision impairment causes them to be unable to see their next step, lose confidence each time they collide, unprotected with obstacles.

​

The Pediatric Belt Cane is a lightweight, wearable assistive safety device that enables these toddlers to detect obstacles in their path using tactile feedback. Safe Toddles provides professional education, community outreach, and an accessible curriculum to ensure every toddler with congenital blindness/mobility visual impairment has the tools they need to feel protected and informed about the path ahead.

Designed for Toddlers

The Pediatric Belt Cane consists of a lightweight rectangular frame that connects with magnets to a custom-made belt. The cane tips slide along the floor providing two points of contact.

"Our blind son Victor started using a Pediatric Belt Cane at 11 months, and it has been a game-changer for him. His doctors said his motor skills would be delayed. They are not!
And we feel so much better knowing that he is safe." - Lisa and Andrew
