Remember, nobody can make another person fall asleep. How to relax and let sleep come is a skill your child, like everybody else, must learn all by herself.

If infants are ready to do something, they will do it. In fact, when they are ready, they have to do it.

Infancy is a vulnerable stage of development, therefore, it's not enough that babies receive good care, the care must be excellent.

We not only respect babies, we demonstrate our respect every time we interact with them. Respecting a child means treating even the youngest infant as a unique human being, not as an object

Every baby moves with more ease and efficiency if allowed to do it at his own time and in his own way, without our trying to teach him. A child who has always been allowed to move freely develops not only an agile body but also good judgment about what he can and cannot do.

Do less; observe more; enjoy most.

What infants need is the opportunity and time to take in and figure out the world around them.
