Baby Bonding
Baby bonding is an evidence based programme that is all about giving you & your baby the best possible start in your special relationship.
By learning playful & relaxing techniques, you will be focusing on the attachment bond between you & your bump/baby. Neuroscience research tells us that a healthy attachment bond will help.....
- your baby’s brain develop,
- encourage a healthier mind
- help minimise levels of stress for you & your baby.
- better physical health,
- better academic success,
- better mental health and resilience.
These benefits of a secure attachment extend over a lifetime. The best part is that you don't have to have had a secure attachment as a child yourself to give this gift to your baby. On this programme you will learn the skill of reflective functioning which research has shown increases the chances of a secure attachment.
Baby bonding is a very gentle and effective preventative and early intervention for parents and their babies-in-waiting/babies.
