1. Spend quality time with your baby - make sure you're spending at least an hour each day interacting and playing with them.
2. Talk to your baby often, using simple language that they can understand.
3. Provide healthy foods for your baby, such as fruits and vegetables, whole grains, proteins, and dairy products.
4. Make sure to provide your baby with plenty of physical touch and cuddling.
5. Encourage exploration through play and discovery.
6. Set boundaries and expectations, but also be patient and understanding when they don't meet those expectations right away.
7. Establish routines early on so your baby is comfortable and familiar with their environment.
8. Model good behavior by being respectful and honest with yourself and others.
9. Be mindful of the media you expose your baby to, including television, movies, and social media.
10. Allow your baby to express themselves in ways that feel natural to them, whether it's crying or laughing.
