The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Walking vests don't help baby learn to walk—in fact, they can slow down natural balance and coordination development. The AAP recommends against walkers for safety reasons. The healthiest way to support walking is letting baby play freely barefoot or in non-slip socks in a safe space. Holding furniture to cruise, holding your hand to walk, and push-pull toys (like a push car) work better than vests.
