InstinctiveParenting.com is dedicated to providing information on a range of topics that aim to empower parents and bring parenting skills back to the basic premise of trusting your instincts, your heart and your baby primarily before taking on the advice of anyone else... including experienced baby ‘experts’.
We support the belief that each baby comes to the world hardwired for survival with specific and justified needs. They may not come with an instruction manual but they do come with their own expert interpreter and that is YOU... their parent.
When it comes to the how's, when's and where's of feeding, holding, sleeping, schooling, and meeting the social needs of your baby, you, not your mother, sister, friend or doctor, know better than anyone else. The only skill that may require practice is listening to your baby’s cues and learning to trust your instincts.
We hope you find that the abundance of articles, recommended reading and websites listed on our site inspires and helps to instil a deeper confidence in your innate understanding of your baby, his needs and your ability to respond to them appropriately and compassionately.
If any information provided on the Instinctive Parenting site does not resonate with you on a gut level... again... trust your instincts. We do not claim to be experts, except as the caretakers of our own children.
Instinctive Parenting provides a range of baby carriers that will support and comfort you while you hold your baby close to your heart.
ancient wisdom
Don't worry about holding or carrying your baby or toddler too much. Instead, you should worry about all those young children who don't get held or carried enough.
