💛⭐ I'm still not over this! ⭐💛

As some of you may remember, last month I attended the Baby Sensory 20th year anniversary conference at Alton Towers!

We had a fantastic, thought provoking day followed by an award ceremony in the evening ✨ It was an opportunity to get dressed up, join together and party....Baby Sensory style! ✨💛⭐🏆

Never in a million years did I expect to win the 'Customer Loyalty' award! It was such a surprise ✨

My customers are my business....without you, I wouldn't be running classes.....so THANK YOU!

Every single parent that has come to my classes! THANK YOU for signing up, coming back term after term, letting me be part of your baby's first year....and then returning with your 2nd, 3rd or 4th babies!

It's honestly the BEST!

Watching your babies grow and develop right in front of me each week....it's a real blessing!
And watching the parents....turning up week 1 with a new born baby, wondering what on earth they are doing at this 'baby class' but beautifully growing and becoming more confident and comfortable each week....that's one of the best parts! ✨✨✨

So again...... THANK YOU!

I'm forever grateful for your support 💛

Love Sarah 💛✨🏆⭐

Do you know a friend or relative with a newborn baby? 👶🏼👶🏼👶🏼👶🏼

The postpartum period is a critical time for the health of a mother. 💛

In some cultures, it is not uncommon for other women, friends, and relatives to look after a new mum in the first few weeks after the birth.

However, many women find themselves without a support network and with little or no experience of caring for a baby.

This can be incredibly overwhelming and daunting at a time when these women may still be recovering from birth.

So how can you support a new mum? Here are 4 ways you can help or show your support:

📞 Send them a text to see how they are doing and if they need anything

☕️ If you visit, offer to make them a drink or something to eat or hold the baby whilst they have a shower or a nap

🚶‍♀️Encourage them to get out and about when they are ready; you could join them for a walk, a drink in a local cafe, or even go with them to a baby class

❤️ Prompt them to get in touch with their GP, health visitors, or a support group if you think they may be suffering from postnatal depression.

👶 Why is it important to stimulate your baby from birth?

Did you know?

⭐️Stimulation from birth increases synaptic connections and neural growth.

The newborn’s brain contains more than 100 billion brain cells (neurons). Some of these neurons were wired in the prenatal period for specific functions such as breathing and heartbeat. However, the majority of synaptic connections for vision, language, hearing, smell, taste, movement and learning will be formed in the first three months of life.

Synaptic connections are formed as a result of actions, events and experiences that the baby encounters from birth. These connections are strengthened whenever the newborn sees their mother’s face, hears the sound of her voice or feels the softness of her skin. Eventually, these connections will become hardwired to form memories.

From birth, there is a massive burst of synapse formation, which peaks at three months. An astonishing two million new connections are formed every second. With these new connections come many milestones, such as face recognition, colour vision, smiling and greater control and use of the hands.

⭐️ Repetition strengthens synaptic connections between the brain cells.

⭐️ Touching, talking, singing, reading, smiling, signing and playing with babies from birth, nourishes the brain and develops potential for a lifetime.

⭐️A rich environment full of interesting sights, sounds, smells, taste, colours, textures and language will build a foundation that will make all subsequent learning easier. This is why early postnatal experiences are so important.

6 Reasons to Join Baby Sensory Stockport East 💛💚💛💚💛💚

Our multi-award winning Baby Sensory classes have been designed with your baby's developmental needs in mind…but they are just as much for you as they are for your baby.

The majority of our Class Practitioners are parents themselves and understand just how difficult & lonely (as well as how wonderful) being a new parent can be.

Our Baby Sensory classes are, therefore, a safe space for you to:

💛 learn about your baby's development
💛 discover new activities to try with your baby
💛 ask questions and share concerns
💛 be together with other parents and babies
💛 chat to other parents with babies of a similar age
💛 gain reassurance if you're struggling
