Developmental Milestones

Cognitive development includes learning processes like memory, language, and reasoning. Babies learn to focus their vision and recognize voices.

Language development goes beyond babbling—it involves listening, understanding, and responding, forming deep emotional bonds.

Positive Parenting

  • Talk to your baby. It is soothing to hear your voice.
  • When your baby makes sounds, answer him by repeating and adding words. This will help him learn to use language.
  • Read to your baby. This helps her develop and understand language and sounds.
  • Sing to your baby.
  • Play music. This helps your baby develop a love for music and math.
  • Praise your baby and give him lots of loving attention.
  • Spend time cuddling and holding your baby. This helps her feel cared for and secure.
  • The best time to play with your baby is when he’s alert and relaxed. Watch your baby closely for signs of being tired or fussy so that you can take a break.
  • Parenting can be hard work! Take care of yourself physically, mentally, and emotionally. It is easier to enjoy your new baby and be a positive, loving parent when you are feeling good yourself.

Child Safety First

Now that your newborn is at home, it is time to make sure that your home is a safe place. Look around your home for household items that might present a possible danger to your baby. As a parent, it is your responsibility to ensure that you create a safe environment for your baby. It is also important that you take the necessary steps to make sure that you are mentally and emotionally ready for your new baby. Here are a few tips to keep your baby safe during her first year of life.

  • It is important that you never shake your newborn baby. Newborn babies have very weak neck muscles that are not yet able to support their heads. If you shake your baby you can damage his brain and delay normal development.
  • Place your baby in a car safety seat every time he rides in the car. The safest place for his safety seat is in the back seat of the car. Children who are less than one year OR are less than 20 pounds should be placed in a rear-facing care seat.
  • To prevent your baby from choking, cut her food into small bites. Don’t allow your baby to play with anything that may cover her face or is easy for her to swallow. Never carry hot liquids or food near your baby or while holding him.
  • Immunizations (shots) are important to protect your child’s health and safety. Because children are susceptible to many potentially serious diseases, it is important that your child receive the proper immunizations. Please consult your local health care provider to ensure that your child is up-to-date on her childhood immunizations
