You do not need to be an expert to properly care for your baby and ensure normal and healthy development. It is enough to learn to understand what children need and take into account their basic needs.
Show your baby your love
Children need love. Your attention, care and concern will be a support for your child to further explore the world. Remember that the love shown to a child early in life will continue to affect his physical, mental and emotional development.
Touch the child more often, talk to him, praise and, if necessary, encourage. Never yell at a baby, especially during the first 6 months of his life. Studies have shown that if children receive more attention from their parents, and they have enough reasons to be happy, this helps in development and increases their self-confidence.
Take care of your child's basic needs
Sleep is a very important process for your baby's development and growth. Studies have shown that during sleep, brain cells in children are especially sensitive and help to understand what he sees, hears, recognizes various smells, touches, and tastes. So make sure your child gets enough sleep every day.
The best nutrition for a baby early in life is, of course, breastfeeding. Babies who are breastfeeding are further less prone to allergies, asthma and eczema, ear infections, diarrhea, constipation, breathing problems, etc.
Talk to your child
Talking to your child is the best way to help develop their brain. You can start talking to him even during pregnancy, with his development in the womb. The development of communication skills is very important for his future healthy and happy life. Talk to him while changing diapers, bathing and eating. Research in this area has shown that children love when their parents speak in a slower, higher voice.
Read books to your child
Surprisingly, reading is one of the most important tokens you can give your child. It helps develop vocabulary and imagination. In addition, reading provides an opportunity to communicate with the child. Reading fairy tales and stories before bedtime is a very useful procedure that helps your baby fall asleep better.
