How to Support our Infants/Babies with C...

MICHELLE KENNEY, M. ED
About this episode

When we’ve exhausted all efforts like diaper changing, feeding, and checking out babies for harm-- sometimes it looks like they’re crying for absolutely no reason. So what else can we do to support our infants and babies while crying? 

Today I’ve invited Patty Wipfler, founder of Hand in Hand Parenting where I was first inspired then trained to make the changes in how I parent my daughters.  In this episode, Patty shares with us the ways we can support our infants, providing them with special time and ultimately allowing them to emotionally process through supported crying. 

 

Episode Highlights:                                                                                     

  • Supporting our babies 
  • what can affect our infants
  • Why connection and presence is important with our babies
  • How we can to build confidence as young as infanthood
