The Drive Nimbo paediatric posterior walker represents a breakthrough in mobility aid design, featuring innovative reverse positioning that encourages natural walking development.
Supporting Natural Walking Development
The Drive Nimbo is a market-leading paediatric walker, thoughtfully designed to provide excellent support for developing walking skills. Unlike traditional walkers that enclose the user from the front, the Nimbo is a posterior (or reverse) walker. This open-fronted design encourages a more upright posture and a healthier walking pattern, making it the trusted choice for therapists and caregivers to help children develop their walking abilities.
Promoting a Natural, Upright Gait
The Nimbo’s posterior design is its key benefit. With the support frame positioned behind them, the child is encouraged to lean into the walker, promoting trunk extension and a more upright posture. This open design also allows for greater ease of movement and helps to facilitate a more natural heel-to-toe walking pattern. It’s a walker that doesn’t just provide stability; it actively assists in gait training and the development of an assured stride.
Safety and Control in Every Detail
Every feature of the Nimbo is designed with a child’s safety in mind. The rear wheels are one-directional and equipped with an anti-reverse override bracket, which prevents the walker from rolling backwards and ensures stability. The front wheels swivel for smooth steering and manoeuvring, while all four wheels have soft rubber tyres that grip the floor and prevent the walker from sliding sideways. The Nimbo provides a secure and stable platform for exploration.
Grows With Each Child
Children grow quickly, and their mobility products need to adapt. The Nimbo is designed as a long-term companion, available in five distinct sizes to ensure a perfect fit through every stage of development. Each size features tool-free height adjustment, allowing easy modification of the handle height for a perfect ergonomic fit as children grow. The lightweight aluminium frame folds easily and compactly, making it simple to transport and store.
