Breast milk is best for your baby

Breastfeeding is the best nutrition for healthy growth and development of babies. Exclusive breastfeeding for 6 months is the optimal way of feeding infants. Thereafter infants should receive complementary foods with continued breastfeeding up to two years or beyond. Good maternal nutrition helps sustain an adequate supply and quality of breast milk. Unnecessary introduction of bottle feeding, partially or fully, or of other complementary foods and drinks may have a negative impact on breastfeeding, which may be irreversible. Consult your doctor and consider the social and financial implications before deciding to use breast milk substitutes or if you have difficulty breastfeeding. Follow usage, preparation and storage instructions of breast milk substitutes or of other complementary foods and drinks carefully as improper or unnecessary use may pose a health hazard.

Massage children's back easing night sleep

Growing Up Together Naturally

Once Upon A Massage for Kids

It may not look like hard work, but your child is busy exploring the world every waking moment – and this multisensory experience can tire him out. So something as simple as a bedtime massage can go a long way in easing him into a good night’s rest, before he takes on the world tomorrow.

Here, you will learn basic massage techniques through a bedtime story. Read it to your child as you knead away, and personalise it where we have indicated in BOLD. Our story massage is best practised in a cool, quiet room, with some baby oil to keep your child’s skin moisturised. Even some spas aren’t this relaxing.

Lay your child on his back.

There was once a little BOY / GIRL named (YOUR CHILD’S NAME), who loved to lay on HIS / HER back and gaze at the night sky.
Lift one leg. Twist gently from the ankle to the thigh. Repeat for the other leg.

With just a little stretch of HIS / HER legs...
Use your thumbs to rub the soles.

(YOUR CHILD’S NAME) could jump over the moon...
Squeeze each toe, one by one.

And tiptoe from cloud to cloud!
Hold your child’s palms in a relaxed manner. Massage from his wrist to his shoulder. Repeat for the other arm.

Sometimes, HE / SHE would even chase after the shooting stars.
Massage the fingers one by one.

But they were either too fast or too far.
Rub your palms excitedly.

“There must be a another way!” baby (YOUR CHILD’S NAME) thought.
Place your warm palms on your child’s tummy. Rub gently in a circular motion.

So with a deep, long breath...
Rest your thumbs at the centre of your child’s forehead and slowly, rub outwards towards his mouth.

HE / SHE closed HIS / HER eyes and saw all the shooting stars HE / SHE could imagine.
Lean in for a good night’s kiss!

Good night, little one.
