In this eye-opening episode, we debunk the myth of self-soothing in babies and explore the science behind infant emotional regulation. We discuss why babies can’t physically self-soothe due to their underdeveloped neocortex and the potential risks of non-responsive sleep training methods. Learn about the crucial role of responsive parenting in fostering healthy brain development and emotional well-being in children. Discover how early experiences shape a child’s stress response system and impact their long-term mental health. This episode provides valuable insights for parents seeking to understand and support their baby’s emotional needs.

A Simple Way to Read Your Toddler's Behaviour Through Play Schemas – Motheroo Podcast
If your toddler keeps doing the same thing over and over, lining up the cars, dropping food off the high chair, wrapping themselves in every blanket in the house, this episode is for you. We unpack what play schemas actually are, why the repetition matters more than it looks, and how a small shift in how you respond can make the early years feel quieter. Calm, evidence-based, and grounded in what really happens at home with a 1 to 4 year old.Read the blog post:MotherooHQ.comFollow us:instagram.com/motherooHQinstagram.com/motheroopodcasttiktok.com/@motherooHQx.com/MotherooHQcomfacebook.com/motherooHQ
