THESE STUDENTS BUILT AN EPIC BABY STROLLER FOR A NEW DAD IN A WHEELCHAIR
By
Good News Network
-
Jul 23, 2021
A group of school kids made a special wheelchair stroller so a disabled dad can
take his newborn son out for a walk.
37-year-old Jeremy King has impaired mobility following an operation to remove a
brain tumour in 2017.
He was concerned how he would manage to help his expecting wife Chelsie after
she gave birth.
Chelsie, a teacher at Bullis School in Maryland recruited the help of her
students who designed the WheeStroll—a child seat which attaches to a
wheelchair.
Just a few weeks after the couple’s son Phoenix was born, Jeremy was able to
take him out for walks with the pram-wheelchair hybrid.
Jeremy said: “I was emotional and elated because something like this really
increases independence with my child.
“It has allowed me to experience things that I would not have been able to do
before having the WheeStroll. It allows us as a family to have more freedom of
movement.”
Middle school theatre instructor Chelsie said: “Being able to see Jeremy have
some independence with our son is a gift.
“This surgery changed our lives drastically and we have worked very hard to
accept, learn, and overcome those challenges but parenting is a whole new set of
challenges.
“It has given us the ability to do something simple like take a walk as a
family; something that a lot of families don’t have to think twice about.”
Just three months after getting engaged to Chelsie, Jeremy underwent an
eight-hour surgery for a brain tumour in October 2017 which resulted in impaired
mobility.
He said: “I was very concerned with the safety of myself and our child
especially with Chelsie having to potentially support both of us.
“It played on my mind constantly which is why it was important for us to find
things to help.”
The couple searched for a product to help Jeremy but with no luck, Chelsie
recruited the help of her colleague, innovation and technology lab coordinator
Matt Zigler.
She asked him if he could design something to attach to Jeremy’s wheelchair to
allow him to hold their child while on the go.

Chelsie said: He had the idea to throw this to his ‘making for social good’
class and I thought that was an amazing idea.”
The school kids conducted interviews with the family and the fire department,
who provide infant car seat installation training.
The school team purchased or 3D printed all the parts required, and even
borrowed a wheelchair from the school nurse as a prototype.
Jeremy, who works in administration, said: “It was a very emotional experience
because I never thought I would be able to do something safely like taking a
walk with my child.”

The WheeStroll was completed in time for the baby’s birth on March 4 this year
and, within a few weeks, Jeremy was taking baby Phoenix for a walk.
“We hope that people will see this story,” Jeremy said, “and know there are ways
around their challenges and can build this for themselves at a low cost.
“I want to personally thank the students for taking my situation into account
and developing this amazing device.”
