Implementing Powered Mobility in Early Childhood Settings for Children With Cerebral Palsy

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a therapist training program can help providers in Part C Early Childhood Settings use powered mobility (PM) with young children who have cerebral palsy (Gross Motor Function Classification System Levels IV-V).

Can therapists successfully use the training to provide powered mobility interventions in home and early childhood settings? 2. Do families and children find the intervention acceptable and helpful? 3. What benefits do children show in mobility, participation, and engagement after using powered mobility? In this study, therapists and families will: 1. Take part in a training program about how to use powered mobility with young children 2. Use powered mobility devices (Permobil Explorer Mini) with children during everyday routines 3. Complete surveys, interviews, and observations about their experiences

The research questions that are formulated, are: * How does a person experience their daily activities, with and without a DAS? * What are the contextual (external and personal) factors that influence the use of a DAS? Participants will take part in three testing sessions. In each session, they must complete a few questionnaires and participate in an interview. The first time, without DAS. In the second and third session, they will be using their DAS (resp. 3 to 4 weeks and 3 months). The data collection will be executed by phone, digital questionnaires and/or paper.
