About Us
Stability and Support for Children with Mobility Challenges
Children with mobility challenges deserve the opportunity to move through their world with safety, confidence, and dignity. The KinderLift Gait Vest was created to provide that support—whether at home, in the classroom, or during therapy.
Our story began in the mid-1990s with a children’s safety ski vest trusted by ski schools around the world. Built for performance in demanding, real-world conditions, our original design quickly earned a reputation for strength, reliability, and safety.
Over time, something unexpected happened.
Parents, teachers, and therapists began reaching out—not for skiing, but for help supporting children with special needs. They saw the potential for something more…for kids who simply needed a steady, reliable helping hand.
We listened—and we went to work.
Designed for Real-Life Support
The KinderLift Gait Vest has been thoughtfully reimagined to meet the everyday needs of children and teens with mobility challenges, along with the caregivers who support them.
Every detail is designed with purpose—helping caregivers provide safe, secure assistance while allowing children to feel more stable, confident, and independent in their movement.
Because support shouldn’t feel restrictive—it should feel empowering.
Proven Strength You Can Trust
KinderLift vests are built to perform when it matters most. Our original design, used in ski programs worldwide, has been tested to withstand over 1,100 pounds of force.
That strength translates into peace of mind—knowing the support you rely on is dependable in real-life situations.
Proudly Made in Colorado
Every KinderLift Gait Vest is made in Denver, Colorado, with a commitment to quality craftsmanship, durability, and care.
We’re proud to create a product that not only supports movement—but helps open the door to more freedom, confidence, and possibility for the children and families we serve.
