Crying
All babies cry, and surprisingly, there isn't always a specific reason for their crying. It's okay to not know why your baby is crying, to guess why, and to try again if they continue to cry.
Feeding baby
For new parents, feeding your baby can feel overwhelming. How often, how much and what to feed baby are very common questions whether you’re a new parent, grandparent or it’s been a few years.
Infant play and tummy time
Play can be a fun part of the first year of your baby’s life. Eighty percent of a child's brain development occurs in the first three years of life, and play is crucial for healthy development and learning.
How much sleep do infants need?
When you bring a newborn home, it can be difficult to get into a routine. In these irregular cycles and as baby grows, parents often wonder if their infant is getting enough sleep.
Safe Sleep for Infants
As a new parent, your top concern is keeping your baby safe. Newborns can sleep up to 16 hours a day, so most of their day is spent asleep. What does a safe sleep environment for your newborn look like?
Bathing Baby
Splish, splash - it’s time for your baby’s bath! But how often should you be having bath time, and how can you keep baby safe in the bath?
Swaddling and sleep sacks
Why swaddle? Many parents like to swaddle their infants. Swaddling can help to calm infants, reduce their startle reflex, promote sleep and can decrease the number of overnight awakenings.
Starting solid foods
It is exciting to see babies try solids for the first name and then all the different foods that follow – watching all of the funny faces they make as they get to experience many new tastes and textures.
