A child's first years are crucial to their development, and as a parent or caregiver you don't want to miss anything. Baby.skills is the app that guides you daily in the motor development of your baby, from birth until the moment your child takes his or her first steps. With expert guidance from pediatric physiotherapist Nienke Bergsma, you will receive 422 days of practical tips, advice and exercises to stimulate your baby's motor skills and recognize problems early. Whether you are a parent, caregiver or professional, Baby.skills offers everything you need to optimally support your child during this important phase of life.
The content is tailored to the age of the child and helps you step by step through the first 422 days. Have you added multiple children to the app, such as your own children or children in childcare? No problem! The notifications are flexible and take multiple children into account, so that you always stay informed of their individual development.
What makes Baby.skills unique is the broad content specially developed for babies from 1 day old to 422 days old. The app contains:
- Theoretical explanation, such as useful tips on how to lift your baby without straining the neck (Day 16: "This is how you lift your baby").
- Facts about baby behavior, such as why your baby stretches when he is in pain and how this can be a sign of reflux (Day 45).
- Fun exercises that you can do together with your baby, such as encouraging the tummy time by sliding your child in front of the mirror (Day 176: "Smile at the bird").
- Practical tips, such as why you should not encourage standing too much until your baby is motor ready for it (Day 206). Every tip, exercise and fact is clearly explained, often supported by images, so that you know exactly what you can do and why it is important for your baby's motor development. The exercises are designed to contribute to your child's development in a playful way, without it feeling like an obligation.
Baby.skills is not only designed for individual parents and caregivers, but also for professionals in childcare, maternity care and childcare. Parents can purchase the app as a subscription and use the library of tips, exercises and advice every day. The Baby.skills Academy offers an ideal solution for child professionals.
