Baby development

Baby development from newborn to toddler is fast. Get advice for baby development including baby milestones, language development and fine motor skills.


Developmental achievements are called 'milestones'. Growth and development milestones are meant to be used as a guide, but not something to worry about. While there is a wide range of 'normal' in the growth and development of your baby, most babies do actually pass through developmental stages in the same order.

Your baby begins to develop social skills very early in life. By interacting with you, your baby will learn how to make friends, and how to connect with other people in his life.

Babies (and mums) thrive on routines - sleeping, eating and playing are all much less stressful when they happen in the right order and at the right time. Find out how to get your baby into a routine and the best routine for you and your baby throughout his first year.
