Early Communication (0-12 months)
Understanding Early Communication
Long before babies say their first words, they’re already communicating in powerful ways. Through eye contact, facial expressions, gestures, cooing, crying, body movements, and vocal play — your baby is learning how to connect with you, express their needs, and engage with the world.
This stage, known as early communication, lays the foundation for language, social connection, and emotional development. It’s all about helping babies feel heard, understood, and safe — even before they can speak.
