Our ability to be sensitive is a fundamental building block for early relationships. When we let the child know that they and their feelings are valued, this important message, when repeated consistently, makes a strong connection in their developing brain.
Developmental milestones give adults clues to skills babies and toddlers may be working on at any given time, though babies and toddlers master skills at slightly different rates. If you are ever worried about your child’s development, check-in with your child’s pediatrician, early care educator, Birth to 3 provider or other early childhood professionals.
