About
Ladder Health is a digital health company revolutionizing early childhood developmental care through virtual-first services. Founded in response to the critical gap in developmental therapy access for children ages 0-6, the company provides comprehensive, holistic care for developmental delays, built in partnership with Boston Children's Hospital. Their platform guides families through developmental screening, clinical evaluations, and ongoing virtual therapy with licensed specialists in physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech-language pathology. The company addresses a significant delivery problem in pediatric healthcare, where families typically wait 6-12 months for developmental therapy services. Ladder Health reduces this wait time to just days by moving care from traditional clinic settings into families' homes. Their technology-enabled model uses a proprietary platform that enables HIPAA-compliant messaging, exercise libraries, progress tracking, and seamless integration with pediatric care teams. The clinical team, composed of certified occupational therapists, physical therapists, and speech pathologists, works collaboratively with parents, caregivers, and educators to support each child's unique developmental journey. Currently serving families in Massachusetts and North Carolina, Ladder Health is expanding to reach more children who need timely intervention during the critical window of early brain plasticity.
