DEVELOPMENTAL MILESTONES (1–6 MONTHS)

“Let’s look at what is commonly expected as babies grow from one to six months.
Remember milestones are guides, not competition.”

1 MONTH
“At one month, babies move their arms and legs freely, lift their head briefly, respond to loud sounds, and enjoy looking at faces.”

2 MONTHS
“At two months, babies begin to smile socially, gain better head control, make cooing sounds, and follow objects with their eyes.”

3 MONTHS
“By three months, babies lift their head and chest during tummy time, open their hands more, recognize caregivers, and enjoy interaction.”

4 MONTHS
“At four months, babies start rolling to the side, reach for objects, laugh aloud, and babble in response to voices.”

5 MONTHS
“At five months, babies can roll over, transfer objects from one hand to another, bring things to their mouth, and respond to their name.”

6 MONTHS
“By six months, babies have good head control, can sit with support, babble more clearly, and enjoy play and social interaction.”

“Every baby develops at their own pace.
If you’re concerned about milestones, speak with a healthcare professional.

By age 3, a child’s brain has formed most of the connections that influence learning, behavior, and emotional regulation. Neuroscience shows that early experiences have an outsized effect on how these neural pathways develop, shaping future potential in school, social life, and problem solving.

Stay-at-home parenting provides a unique environment for this critical window. Daily interactions, consistent routines, emotional responsiveness, and guided exploration create patterns that help the brain regulate stress, develop attention, and strengthen memory. These moments may seem ordinary but they build the foundation for lifelong competence.

Research confirms that children with consistent early caregiving show higher cognitive flexibility, better language skills, and improved social-emotional outcomes. Even simple practices like talking, reading, playing, and nurturing curiosity send repeated signals to the nervous system that the world is safe, predictable, and engaging. These signals optimize the way the brain processes experiences and forms habits.

Parents who spend dedicated, attentive time with young children are not just filling hours they are shaping future potential. Early caregiving is a form of brain architecture building. The connections formed during this window influence learning, emotional resilience, and relationships for years to come.

Language Groups for Kindergarten & Pre-Primary (Perth)

Build confidence using words and sentences

Improve listening, attention, and understanding. The small groups allow for more attention to be placed on the child's specific needs.

Learn early classroom skills like turn-taking, asking for help, and following routines

Develop social language needed for school readiness

Groups are play-based, structured, and supportive, helping children feel confident and prepared for the classroom.

👶💬 What should a 24-month-old understand and say?

If you’re wondering whether your 2 year old’s speech is on track, you’re not alone. Language development varies — but there are milestones that can guide parents.

At 24 months, many children:
✅ Understand simple instructions
✅ Know familiar words and names
✅ Use 50+ words
✅ Combine two words together (“more milk”)

🚩 You may want to seek advice if your child:
• Uses very few words
• Isn’t combining words
• Gets frustrated trying to communicate
• Struggles to follow simple instructions

The good news?
🎲 Speech therapy at this age is play-based, gentle, and very effective.

If you’re unsure, early advice can offer clarity and peace of mind 💛

Young children learn primarily through connection with their parents. Before age three, their brain development depends more on direct interaction than on play with peers. Emotional safety forms the foundation for future learning and relationships.

When parents respond consistently, talk, sing, and engage in shared activities, children develop trust and understanding. These early experiences strengthen language, curiosity, and emotional regulation. Peer interactions become meaningful only after this secure base is established.

Socialization is important later, but the first years focus on attachment. Children mirror caregivers’ expressions and moods, absorbing lessons about empathy, problem solving, and communication. They need consistent presence more than structured group activities.

Rushing toddlers into peer play before they are ready can be less effective than spending time in responsive one-on-one interactions. Building secure attachment supports confidence, self-esteem, and healthy social skills naturally over time.

Being present, playful, and attentive is the best form of early learning. Children who feel safe and connected with caregivers explore the world confidently. Your time, attention, and responsiveness shape the skills that socialization alone cannot provide.
