This child is still very young and still cultivating her psychosocial self image. It is difficult to change yourself image as you age in this impacts many areas of your life. that is the reason to try to help her at this stage.

This is easy to say as an adult. Do you remember childhood? Being different or weird sets you up to be bullied.her mom shoukd be helping her.

Additionally she sort of limps when she walks, not due to any sort of disability, simply the way she moves. She has told me that the other kids in her first grade class have been imitating her voice, comparing her looks to a frog’s, and I’m concerned this will take a turn towards physical bullying. How do I step in and prevent this.
Teach her how to kick a knee out sideways.

Limping. This is a huge concern. Please got to your pediatrician. Point this out and ask for a referral to an OT or PT, whatever they think is best.
Affect. Not exactly sure of your meaning. Again, go to your pediatrician and ask for a referral. Neuropsych eval, psychologist, social worker… something.
How long have you been seeing your current pediatrician? Have they ever had concerns about your child’s development?
Limping. Not due to injury just the way she walks?!?! Could be hip joint, leg length, neurological, many things that need to be ruled out or treated. Even a simple orthotic, ffs.
Froggy looks. Is this eye, mouth, facial geometry? Bulging eyes could be thyroid or cancer.
Imitate her voice? What about her voice? Hoarseness could be GERD, other things due to other things.
No one is saying mocking or bullying is ok but the river of parental denial running through this child's life needs to end.
You think she has cancer because her peers called her ugly?

Why are we trying to to fix a 6 yo with a limp??? Its borderline child abuse to not check it out!
Of course a child should be treated for medical issues but the reason is for the health of the child and not for the satisfaction of her peers.
…which is exactly what everyone is saying. Glad you agree!

So to avoid being called ableist we let a child continue to have gait and speech issues, possibly undiagnosed reasons for eye or facial geometry issues when they might be treated?
That's like to avoid being called Fauci clones we encourage neighbors who are on the fence about vaccines not to have their kids vaccinated against measles or get tetanus shots when they step on a nail or get rabies shots for their dogs,
