Uni-Care: 5 Personal Tips for Raising a Happy Healthy Kid!

 

Sharing some personal tips to Parents like me!  

I am not a Mommy expert and I also acknowledge that all kids are unique and that there's no single way of parenting. I am proud that my son is growing up smart, kind, and loving. It is my first time being a Mom yet I want to share my tips and realizations as I go through Motherhood. It may or may not work for some parents -- who knows -- but they are all worth-trying :) 

#1 LISTEN TO YOUR CHILD

As early as newborn, you should already be listening to your child. The cues and sounds your little one makes are meant to tell you something. There's even a video I watched before about the cues babies make to distinguish when they're hungry, irritable, wanting to burp, etc. As your child learns to speak, the more that you should listen because this is the phase when he/she has a lot of questions to ask and words to express. I drop whatever I'm doing whenever my son wanted to have a talk. If it can't be helped (say, if I'm in a middle of a meeting), then I tell him a specific time and make sure to follow through. For me, it is important that your kid knows that you are there to listen, to talk, and that he/she is important and worth your time.  

#2 LET HIM/HER EXPLORE

It is really through playing and trying new things on their own that kids learn more. For first-time parents, I know that the fear and worry would always be there. What if my child tripped, or put something in his/her mouth? You cannot really control the actions of your child but what you can do is to provide a safe environment so your kid can play freely. Through this activity, kids express their creativity and resourcefulness, and at the same time, build their confidence. 

For parents, this would also mean constant fixing and cleaning up. But my advice is to keep sanitizers and wet wipes handy. Uni-Love Baby Wipes contains the natural properties of aloe vera, lanolin and Vitamin E. It is natural, mild and effective cleansing for your child's delicate skin and prevents rashes. It is also proved to have thicker and softer fabric than any ordinary wipes. It is suitable for hands, face and body and for happy area.

#3 LET YOUR CHILD HAVE ENOUGH REST AND SLEEP

No one should ever underestimate the value of having enough rest and sleep. Even for us, adults, we know how lack of sleep affects our focus, energy, and mind for the whole day. Having a routine really helps as it sets your child's body clock especially for sleep time. Like in my case, I work until midnight and my son has to sleep on his own. It is made possible as we have already established a routine. 

For babies, a long undisturbed sleep is such a goal that parents would do anything just to keep it. Nobody wants to endure a cranky baby after all. As I was breastfeeding before (when my son was still a baby), waking up in the middle of the night due to hunger was not an issue. But keeping my son comfortable and with no rashes is a different story. A trusted diaper brand suitable to your baby's needs is of great help! Uni-Love Airpro Baby Diaper has a super absorbent core, keeping your babies' skin comfortable and dry. Its ultrasoft topsheet will surely reduce skin friction and nappy rash. It also has stretchable waistband to keep the diaper fit on your baby and to help them move freely.

#4 DON'T NEGLECT THE TEETH

I am putting this tip here because if there is one thing that I should have done before, it is taking care of my son's teeth right from the start. You do not have to wait until the first tooth comes out before you start taking care of a child's teeth. Even when there's no tooth yet, wipe the gums with soft cloth. As a first time mom, I got afraid of cleaning my son's teeth thoroughly as I thought it might hurt him. The more I got scared when I saw blood while brushing his teeth when he's a little bit older. Little did I know that those blood were already bad signs as mentioned by the dentist.

So from then on, I make sure to put proper attention to my son's teeth. He can now brush his teeth on his own but one thing that really encourages him is having a toothbrush and a toothpaste designed and meant for kids. Uni-Love Strawberry Ice Cream baby training toothpaste helps clean your child's teeth gently. It promotes healthy oral care habit for your toddler’s primary teeth. It even has probiotics!

#5 EXPRESS YOUR LOVE

I grew up not being comfortable expressing my thoughts and feelings to my parents and family, and this is one thing that I would never want to happen to my son. Expressing your love and care through words and actions is a huge factor that builds your child's character. It provides a feeling of safety and security. A child nurtured with love will have a healthier mental, physical, and emotional well-being. It also creates a stronger bond between parents and child. I sometimes wonder how or why my son is so sweet and caring especially to me. And then I realize how I constantly express those as well to him. Showing love is not just about hugging or saying "I love you". It is also about making time, listening, valuing, and supporting. 

I hope you'll ponder on these simple tips and you can also share your own tips to other parents out there who might be needing these. Parenthood is not easy, especially if it's your first time. Let us be supporting to our co-parents as we're the ones who understand this experience the most.
