There are certain little things you start noticing when you spend a lot of time visiting families with newborns.

For me, one of them is Aruvathaam Pachai.

I’ve seen this aromatic plant in many clients’ homes. Traditionally, some families like having it around during the newborn period for its fresh, pleasant aroma.

We prepare so much for baby, but I also love the idea of thinking about how the home feels for everyone spending those early weeks there.

Do you have Aruvathaam Pachai at home?

Is massage safe during pregnancy?

Prenatal massage can be an option for some pregnant women, but it isn't something we approach exactly like a regular massage.

If you have medical concerns or pregnancy complications, speak with your healthcare professional about whether massage is appropriate for you.

And when choosing a therapist, look for someone who understands prenatal massage and how positioning and technique need to be adapted during pregnancy.

At SEYOL, prenatal massage is available from 14 weeks of pregnancy.

Some days, the break between clients looks like this.

Grab some food, sit in the car, talk about everything and nothing, finish eating and head to the next client.

When you work together every day, these moments don't feel particularly important while they're happening.

Maybe one day, they will.

Getting a newborn into the shoulder-burping position can feel awkward when you're still learning.

The important part is keeping baby supported throughout the movement, especially around the head and neck, and bringing baby close to your body rather than making a large unsupported movement.

In this demonstration, the hand positioning is shown to bring baby up towards the shoulder.

Always handle newborns gently and make sure their head and neck remain supported.

Expecting? Save this for later.

Being handed a newborn can feel surprisingly awkward when you're still learning.

One thing that can help is reducing the distance between you and baby. Instead of reaching your arms far out, come closer, use your lap/body for support and make sure you have a secure hold before taking over.

With practice, newborn handling can start to feel much more natural.

Try this the next time you're handed a newborn.

A beautiful baby setup is nice. A setup that actually helps you when you need something quickly is better.

Keep the things you reach for regularly, such as diapers, creams, covers and toys, organised and easy to access.

Because once baby needs your attention, you don't want to be searching around the room for what you need.

Save this before setting up your baby station.

Can swaddling help a baby sleep better?

For some babies, swaddling can help them feel settled and comfortable. But not every baby responds to the same arm position.

You may start with both arms inside and observe how your baby responds. Some babies may be more comfortable with a different position.

The key is to observe, adjust and always keep safe sleep practices in mind.

For sleep, place baby on their back on a firm, flat sleep surface and stop swaddling once baby shows signs of trying to roll.

Save this for your newborn-care journey.

Sorry Malayalis, but hear me out before you come for me.

As someone who works closely with mothers and babies, one thing I deeply admire is the importance traditionally placed on caring for both mother and baby during the postpartum period.

So much attention naturally goes to a new baby. Seeing traditions where the mother's recovery and care are also given importance is something that means a lot to me.

That said, after this sadya…

the food comes very, very close.

Happy Onam from all of us at SEYOL!

Have you seen this traditional baby-care practice before?

This is Atta Loi, a practice commonly associated with North Indian families. It has traditionally been used to help remove fine body hair and dead skin from a baby's body.

With a baby's delicate skin, gentleness matters. Traditional practices should be approached carefully and with attention to the ingredients and technique being used.

Seeing Atta Loi for the first time? Save this Reel for later.

Sometimes it’s the smallest things.

I spotted these chickens while I was on my way to my client’s home in Singapore, and for a moment, it felt like I was back in India.

It made me happy enough that I had to stop and film it to show you too.

What’s something small that instantly reminds you of home?
