How to get enough Tummy Time this Christmas

For most of  the festivities involve being out and about, travelling between gatherings and lots of fun, however this can limit the time your baby has for free play and floor based tummy time. Tummy time not only provides the opportunity for supporting posture development, but it also gives your child time to play, explore, have space and learn elements of self regulation. So how do you make sure your baby gets enough tummy time this festive season between all your commitments?

Firstly, understanding how much tummy time your child needs will help you make sure you are providing the minimum time, and then anything more is a wonderful bonus!

We had great feedback from the attendees saying that the skills and information gathered from the event was helpful & informative. It was great to give the Mum's some tips & skills to help babies sleep. We have another Sleep workshop coming soon due to such great demand!  So register here to keep informed of these types of upcoming events.
