Yes they do …

Babies are communicating from the moment they are born.

They tell us how they're feeling through:

✨ facial expressions
✨ movements
✨ eye contact
✨ sounds
✨ changes in breathing

One of the greatest gifts infant massage offers is the opportunity to become more familiar with these subtle signals.

The more we notice, the more connected our relationships become.

Attunement starts with paying attention.

✨Giving your child and/or baby choices ✨
Giving babies and children choices helps them build autonomy, confidence, communication skills, and emotional regulation. Even very small choices can have a big developmental impact.

For babies and toddlers choices help them:

* Feel some control in a world where adults decide almost everything
* Practice decision-making
* Reduce frustration and power struggles
* Learn language (“blue cup or red cup?”)
* Build trust and cooperation
*Build self confidence & self esteem

How will I know what my baby/child chooses?
*Babies might look at the one they want
* They might move towards the thing they’ve chosen
*They may point at what they want
*Say what they want by saying a word like ‘Ta ‘ and reaching out towards what they’ve chosen.

How or when can I give my baby/child choices ?
Everyday experiences offer opportunity.
*Ask what colour top they want to wear ( hold up two different coloured tops)
*Ask what snack they would like - offering a choice of two .
*Ask what path they’d like to take on a walk (what way , pointing in two directions)
*Ask what rattle they’d like to hold ( like the photo)
*Ask if they’d like a massage
*Ask if they’d like a cuddle , opening your arms - they can choose to snuggle in/come over to you or not

The list is endless 😉 It’s never to early to start this - it build on mutual respect and valuing your child as an individual ❤️
