OUR FOUNDING STORY

We started Ladder Health because we’ve been there, too.

Our founder, Elizabeth Kidder, knows firsthand the frustration and worry that comes with searching for the right care. When her son Noah was born six weeks premature, she noticed his physical movements were behind peers his age.

Despite voicing concerns, she was told to “wait and see”. It was only after months of persistence that Noah finally received the physical therapy he needed — and within weeks, he was thriving. Elizabeth realized families shouldn’t have to fight this hard for developmental support.
