Your Baby’s Blooming Brain

Your baby’s sweet little head is born with billions of brain cells which have the ability to be stimulated to grow based on early and enriching experiences. These brain cells are ready for you to nurture so they can form the connections needed for your baby to bloom and grow to their greatest potential.

While many factors influence brain development, YOUR EARLY INTERACTIONS HAVE THE MOST SIGNIFICANT IMPACT! It is important you stimulate your baby’s brain and plant the seeds for their life successes much earlier than you may be aware.

Baby Blooming Moments®

Baby Blooming Moments empowers you to enrich your baby’s early years and make a lasting impact in your baby’s life. There are many unique ways to engage, ways to communicate and ways to bond that will help your baby thrive and bloom.

Listening, understanding, stimulating and forming strong attachments with love and security are essential for your baby’s brain as well as their social and emotional development.

As I coach you about how to integrate my proactive strategies into your baby's play and daily activities, you will be astonished at how quickly your baby shows you immediate and amazing new responses including:

  • smiling back at you
  • focusing on your facial expressions
  • listening to your tone of voice
  • producing new sounds or even words
  • deeper intense feeling of connection and attachment

As you continue to implement my proactive strategies through all the different activities you engage in with your baby during these critical early years, your baby’s abilities will continue to bloom which will ultimately help them reach their greatest potential.

Look Who’s Talking (Communicating)

Are you talking to me? When is it possible for my baby to start communicating with me? SURPRISE! If you start talking to your baby right after delivery, your newborn may turn their head toward you! You can experience this amazing interaction, especially if you have been talking and singing to your baby during your pregnancy.

After a few days many babies will stick their tongue out and then if you do the same, your newborn may imitate you. These are ways your newborn begins to communicate
