Care for caregivers

While parenting and child care can in itself be stressful, such stresses can be aggravated by professional and other household responsibilities. It is important for caregivers and families to ensure they are able to balance their other responsibilities with childcare to ensure their children receive adequate protection and care. All forms of violence at home must be prevented as these create an environment that psychological affects the development and well-being of a child.

About child growth

Children’s growth is a sign of their overall health and nutrition.

All babies and children grow at different rates, and there’s a big range when it comes to ‘normal’. Your child’s growth is unique for him or her, and usually follows a pattern that’s right for him or her.

At home with your baby, you’ll know whether she’s growing. You’ll notice her getting too big for her clothes, bassinet, baby bath or other things that seemed enormous when she was just a newborn.
