Hi-Low Base The Leckey Squiggles Seating System can be used in all types of scenarios thanks to the versatile Hi-Low base. The Hi-Low base allows for the child’s height to be easily changed via a gas compression foot pedal to ensure they are always ready for eye-to-eye interaction during work, rest, and play. When relaxation or a change of pressure control is needed, the tilt-in-space feature offers an easy way to achieve it without disturbing overall posture. |

Leckey Squiggles Seating System Buyer’s Guide
The Leckey Squiggles Seating System is a specialized adaptive solution tailored for young children with diverse physical management needs. This system focuses on delivering targeted support during critical early development stages, allowing children to participate more fully in daily home and classroom activities. By prioritizing comfort and alignment, the system helps maximize functional ability and social interaction for young users.
Squiggles Seating Stability and Pelvic Alignment
A fundamental element of this adaptive chair is its ability to establish a stable base at the pelvis. The Squiggles Seating setup utilizes a four-point pelvic harness alongside adjustable hip guides to prevent the user from sliding forward or tilting sideways. This deliberate stabilization forms the core foundation for upper-body control, allowing children who experience muscle tone variations to maintain a steady and secure upright position.
Pediatric Postural Support for Early Development
Providing appropriate pediatric postural support is essential for preventing structural deformities as a child grows. The system addresses this with highly adjustable lateral trunk supports and a contoured backrest that conforms to the child’s natural anatomy. This close-fitting design wraps gently around the torso, offering the precise amount of trunk control required to reduce fatigue and encourage independent head movement.
Early Intervention Seating Versatility for Toddlers
Designed primarily for children aged 1 to 5, this early intervention seating tool is optimized for the unique challenges of early childhood development. The framework is highly adjustable, allowing therapists and caregivers to alter the configuration as the child meets new developmental milestones. Its versatile design means the same system can transition smoothly between targeted clinical therapy sessions and casual family meal times.
Adaptive Seating System Adjustability and Growth Accommodation
Because children grow rapidly, this adaptive seating system features an engineered frame that expands in both seat depth and backrest height. The footplate and armrests can also be adjusted independently to accommodate physical growth or changing medical prescriptions without requiring an entirely new chair. This built-in adaptability ensures a continuous, customized fit over several years of use.
Comfortable Fabric Covers and Daily Maintenance
The system is outfitted with brightly colored, breathable cushioned covers that are specifically engineered to manage surface temperature and moisture. These padded surfaces are designed to protect sensitive skin while offering comfortable support during long periods of sitting. For easy maintenance, the machine-washable covers can be unzipped and removed quickly to manage everyday spills and cleanups.
