Tips for Relaxing Your Baby

Many parents have diffculty with calming their distressed baby. Here are just a few tips that may help.



Music:
According to research of Dr Stephen Malloch from University of Western Sydney infants and toddlers become less irritable and less likely to cry when someone sings to them gently. Baby music also helps them maintain normal behavioural development. For more information about the 3-year research project done in collaboration with the Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne click here.

Massage:
Gently massaging your baby can help them to relax, as well as assisting in stimulating the nervous system, respiration and blood circulation. Massage can also relieve muscle tension and lead to better sleep.
There are many different techniques for infant massage, but be sure to always consult your doctor before attempting them

Relax:
Make sure you’re relaxed! Your baby will sense if you are stressed or worried and will have a much harder time relaxing themselves. Take the time to sit with your baby in a quiet room and focus on your breathing. As you slowing calm yourself and forget about the days stresses your baby will notice!

Aromatherapy:
The gentle smell of aromatherapy can soothe and relax your baby. Essential oils can be used when massaging your baby, in a vaporizer or in a warm bath. Be sure to consult your doctor for infant aromatherapy recommendations as some oils can irritate your young baby.

Bath:
A simple warm bath can do wonders for calming your baby, as well as putting him/her to sleep.

Peace Baby Music For Breastfeeding

Supporting the Australian Breastfeeding Association and utilising recognised music therapy principles applied in the Peace Baby® range.

Music for Breastfeeding encourages relaxation and deep, peaceful breathing which in turn helps mothers milk flow more freely making life easier, more comfortable and happier for both mother and child.

Modern Day Music Therapy

For generations, music has been known to calm the mind, soothe the soul and heal the body.

Modern day music therapy for babies is the use of specific sound patterns to encourage a particular change in mood or behaviour.

Research suggests that music for babies based on a soft, regular tempo of 60 beats per minute encourages calm, regular breathing which can evoke a positive response in the listener - even babies in the womb.

As such pre-natal music therapy may help ease the transition from womb to outside world, create a familiar and secure environment for babies and encourage early bonding between mother and child, particularly if played during the last trimester of pregnancy.

Many crèches and hospitals use music therapy as a stress reduction technique for infants and music therapy has also been credited with helping stabilise the heart rate and oxygen intake of premature babies which in turn helps the baby to grow.

Music therapy is also thought to promote creativity and imagination in babies, young children and adults alike.
