All children accomplish milestones in their own way, in their own time.

Childhood is not a race to see how quickly a child can read, write and count. It is a small window of time to learn and develop at the pace that is right for each individual child. Earlier is not better.

Predictability brings about security.

The more we do, the busier we are, the less we really pay attention.

When you approach your baby with an attitude of respect, you let him know what you intend to do and give him a chance to respond. You assume he is competent and involve him in his care and let him, as much as possible, solve his own problems. You give him plenty of physical freedom and you don't push development.

An infant always learns. The less we interfere with the natural process of learning, the more we can observe how much infants learn all the time.

Let the child be the scriptwriter, the director and the actor in his own play.
