Episode 1 – Tummy Time + Baby Class 1

Tummy time can be started from birth and should be done every day! I can’t emphasise enough just how important this is for your baby’s healthy brain and body development. There are many ways to develop a love of tummy time together and the earlier you start, the better.
Dr Jane Williams – Leading baby development expert

You are your baby’s first, most important and best teacher. You can have a dramatic influence over your baby’s brain growth and future learning ability. This first year is a critical period, when much of the essential wiring linked to learning is laid down.

• Interview on baby development with paediatrician Dr Meredith Sheil

I’ve been following the Active Babies Smart Kids videos doing one every few days. I’ve just noticed a huge difference in my baby’s abilities, especially tummy time. They are such a great reference tool because not only do you get the activities to do, but also the ‘why’ which is so important! It’s not only teaching my baby, it’s teaching me to! I feel more confident as a new mum. Thank you for this great resource. 

 

One of the things I love about the ABSK online series is watching my husband and baby bonding together. Since he loves taking care of our little one whenever he has a spare second, he always refers to the videos so that he has ‘quality time’ with him. Such joy!
