Breastfeeding advantages•Breast milk is the only food specifically designed, by nature, to meet your baby's individual needs.•It contains the right balance of nutrients in a very easily digestible form.•Antibodies are passed on through breast milk to protect your baby from all kinds of infection. The longer you can feed your baby the better but if you breastfeed for the first three or four months this protection can last for up to a year.•Your baby is much less likely to need to be admitted to hospital.•Your baby is less likely to develop diarrhoea or constipation.•Breastfeeding reduced the incidence of allergies such as eczema and asthma.•Breast milk contains growth factors and hormones to help your baby's development. These cannot be reproduced in formula milk. Children who have breast fed for eight months or more have been shown to achieve more at school than those who have been bottle fed.

Disadvantages of breastfeeding•Blood borne viruses such as hepatitis B or HIV and some medication can be passed on to your baby in breast milk.•Some women find breastfeeding painful, stressful and tiring•You are unable to measure the amount of milk your baby has consumed, this can be a disadvantage if your baby is having problems putting on weight.•It can be difficult for a breastfeeding mother to leave her baby for more than a couple of hours as no one else can feed baby unless she leaves expressed milk

Advantages and disadvantages of disposable

• Wash hands after and before taking care of a dirty baby.• disposable diapers are better at preventing leaks than cloth diapers. They recommend using

disposable diapers in a childcare setting where intestinal diseases may be easily transmitted. They also claim that disposable diapers are better for preventing diaper rash because they are better at pulling wetness away from the baby's skin.

• When traveling, disposable diapers may be the more convenient choice. Since disposables are made of super-absorbent materials, they do not need to be changed as often as cloth diapers

• one of the main concerns of using disposable diapers is what they contain. The gel used in the absorbent core of the diaper is called sodium polyacrylate. This chemical has been linked to allergic reactions and toxic shock syndrome. In addition, the dyes and fragrances used in disposable diapers have been known to cause symptoms such as headaches, dizziness and skin rashes. Another concern is infants pulling the disposables apart and choking on the plastic.

• Another disadvantage to using disposable diapers is their cost. Depending on the brand and size, a parent may expect to spend between $50 and $80 a month on disposable diapers for a single child.

Cloth diapers• Advantages

• cloth diapers have come a long way over the years. They are available with self-sticking tabs and removable inserts. A parent's main concern when it comes to diapers is preventing diaper rash. Advocates of cloth diapers say that because cloth diapers don't contain man-made chemicals, they are healthier for preventing diaper rash.

• Disadvantages

• There are two choices when using cloth diapers: to launder them yourself or have them laundered by a diaper service. While laundering cloth diapers may save money over buying disposables, the cost of using a diaper service is roughly equivalent to the cost of buying disposables. As cloth diapers need to be soaked, laundering them at home may be time consuming.

Changing a girlChanging a GirlFirst, lift her legs with one hand and remove any poop with a wet washcloth. Many new moms use baby wipes on their newborns with no problem. If your child's skin reacts to the chemicals in wipes, you can use a washcloth or cotton balls and plain water when cleaning baby's derriere during the first few weeks. Using one area of the cloth at a time, clean inside all the creases, wiping downward. To clean the genital area, wipe from the vagina toward the rectum. Do not pull the labia back to clean inside. Dry the area with a soft cloth. Apply ointment around the genitals and on the buttocks to prevent diaper rash.

Changing a Boy• When changing a baby boy’s diaper, do not allow the old diaper to fall open. By keeping

the diaper up, it can form a shield between you and the baby incase he starts to pee again, and in most cases, he will. Baby boys tend to pee as soon as their male genital hits the air for some reason. Because of the size and the location of the male organs, the pee tends to go up and away from the baby’s body, and has been known to strike the face or chest of the parent doing the changing. To avoid this, hold the diaper over the baby lightly while changing until he releases that urine.

• Once he has released his urine from having the diaper removed, remove that diaper and clean the baby off. Be sure to remove any fecal matter that may have traveled up the baby’s back or is stuck between the cheeks of the baby’s bottom. This fecal matter can cause urinary infections and can irritate the baby’s skin if left.

• Once the baby is clean, slip the new diaper under his bottom and apply any diaper powders that are necessary. These powders help to relieve or prevent diaper rash. Secure the diaper firmly, but without cutting off any circulation to the growing baby’s body. Once the new diaper is on, the baby can be released to resume playing.

reflexesInstinctive automatic response such as sneezing or sucking in infants

Rooting reflex reflex consisting of head-turning and sucking movements elicited in a normal infant by gently stroking the side of the mouth or cheek

Palmer graspa flexion of the fingers caused by stimulation of the palm of the hand. The reflex is present at birth and usually disappears by 6 months of age.

Moro reflex•Moro reflex - The Moro reflex is often called a startle reflex because it usually occurs when a baby is startled by a loud sound or movement. In response to the sound, the baby throws back his/her head, extends out the arms and legs, cries, then pulls the arms and legs back in. A baby's own cry can startle him/her and begin this reflex. This reflex lasts about five to six months.

Babinski reflex - When the sole of the foot is firmly stroked, the big toe bends back toward the top of the foot and the other toes fan out. This is a normal reflex up to about 2 years of age

Stepping reflexStep reflex - This reflex is also called the walking or dance reflex because a baby appears to take steps or dance when held upright with his/her feet touching a solid surface.

Anatomy of the brain

Frontal lobe The frontal lobe is involved with decision making problem solving and planning

It is found right behind the forehead and at the top front of your head

Parietal lobe •Cognition•Information Processing•Pain and Touch Sensation•Spatial Orientation•Speech•Visual Perception

•The parietal lobes are superior to the occipital lobes and posterior to the central sulcus (fissure) and frontal lobes.

Temporal lobeThe temporal lobes are involved in several functions of the body including: •Auditory Perception•Memory•Speech•Emotional Response•Visual Perception

Directionally, the temporal lobes are anterior to the occipital lobes, inferior to the frontal lobes and parietal lobes, and lateral to the Fissure of Sylvius, also known the lateral sulcus

occipital lobe The occipital lobes are involved in several functions of the body including: •Visual Perception•Color Recognition

Directionally, the occipital lobes are posterior to the temporal lobes and inferior to the parietal lobes

Characteristics of the right part of the brainA person with a right brain dominant is creative they are know as dreamers artist and musicians Right brain controls left side of body Prefer visual instructions with examples Good at sports Good at art They are more emotional They are unable to prioritize well.The right part of the brain is creativeness

Characteristics of the left part of the brainThe left brain takes care of organization and logic those that have a dominant left side are also very organized, they prefer schedules and deadlines, and love rules and regulations.

Jean Piaget He is Swiss philosopher and psychologist.His theory identified four major learning stages or periods that take place from birth to adulthood.1896-1980His theory is important because it helps others understand how children develop intellectually and it helps us understand how to help children develop new skills.

Child psychologist

• Children and young teens face emotional problems that are specific to their age group, and child psychologists strive to help their patients with these particular issues. Experimentation with drugs and alcohol, depression and anxiety, sexuality concerns, schoolwork and self-discipline, time management issues and family crises such as divorce or death all affect children differently than adults. Child therapists spend their time assessing the depth of these problems with their patients and working with them to develop coping skills and solutions.

• Salaries range from a low 30k to 45k
