Gain Peace of Mind About Your Baby’s Head Shape—Right from Home

Because every little head deserves care.

At Progress Through Play, our mission is to empower parents with clear guidance, early support, and evidence-informed tools. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce our new partnership with Skully Care, an innovative app that lets you check your baby’s head shape from home in just minutes — using a single guided photo.

Whether your baby prefers turning to one side, sleeps in a favorite position, or you’re simply unsure if asymmetry is developing, Skully Care gives you clear, objective insight when it matters most.

Why Early Head Shape Checks Matter

You see your baby every day — which means tiny changes can be easy to miss.
Most babies have preferred positions during sleep, feeding, or play. Over time, that can lead to subtle flattening on one side of the head. Sometimes it’s obvious. Sometimes it’s not.

That’s usually when parents start asking:

  • Is this normal?

  • Will it round out on its own?

  • Should we see a specialist?

The first months of life are a critical window: your baby’s head is growing rapidly and remains soft and moldable. This makes early detection and small adjustments especially effective.

A quick, objective check early on gives you:

  • Clarity on what’s actually happening

  • Reassurance if everything looks great

  • A head start if positioning, play adjustments, or therapy may help

See What’s Really Happening — Right From Home

With Skully Care, you can assess your baby’s head shape using your phone — no clinic visit required.

In minutes, your scan provides:

✔️ Head Shape Symmetry Data

✔️ Objective Measurements

✔️ Clear Visuals to Track Progress

✔️ Shareable Results for Your PT or Provider

No more guessing or worrying. Just real information you can trust.

How It Works: Simple as 1–2–3

Step 1: Measure

Download the Skully Care app and take one guided photo of your baby’s head. The app securely uploads your image for analysis.

Step 2: Pay

Make a one-time payment of $14.50 per scan. Skully Care calculates symmetry, cephalic index, and overall growth patterns.

Step 3: Find Out What’s Next

Receive your results in minutes. You’ll see visual maps and objective measurements showing exactly how even your baby’s head shape is — plus suggestions for what may help. You can also share the scan directly with your therapist for expert review.

Want a Professional to Review Your Results?

If you’d like to talk through your scan or get personalized recommendations, you can schedule a virtual or in-person session with one of our expert infant physical therapists at Progress Through Play.

Our team will:
