One of my favourite things about working with babies is watching their little bodies soften.

This gorgeous little one was born by C section and was struggling with settling for sleep and some tummy discomfort. During the session you can see him gradually relax until he drifts into a deep, peaceful sleep.

His lovely mum later shared this:

“We had over on Friday for a cranial session to release tension from birth. We’ve done this with all our babies post C section and highly recommend! He was a bit fussy and showing signs of colicky/reflux! Already much more settled xx”

Thank you so much for allowing me to share these precious moments. It was a privilege to work with your beautiful little boy. ❤️

Before babies can calm themselves, they rely on us.

Not just for feeding, changing and comfort, but for regulation.

A baby’s nervous system is still developing. They learn about safety through repeated experiences of being soothed, held, comforted and connected.

This doesn’t mean we need to be calm all the time.

It means that when we can find our way back to calm, we help them find theirs too.

Before babies learn to calm themselves, they borrow calm from us. ❤️

We often think regulation means being calm all the time.

But that’s not realistic.

Life is often really stressful.

Children are challenging.

Things go wrong.

We all get overwhelmed sometimes.

Regulation isn’t about never struggling.

It’s about recognising when we’re off balance and knowing what helps us find our footing again.

The goal isn’t to stay regulated all the time.

The goal is knowing the way back.❤️
