Nutrition is very important to your child brain development.

Your may know that your child brain is busy building its wiring system from birth. This wiring system consists of neurons (brain cells), their connecting fibers (axons), as well as the connections between them (synapses). When you talk to your child, for example, her brain sends chemical signals along the neurons which then crosses over the synapses and causes more connections to be formed with other neurons. The speed at which this information is transmitted is dependent on the special insulation of the neuron which is called myelin.

Mothers influence their babies from the time they are in the womb. Early stimulation helps to set the right foundation for your baby Learning and advancement. In early pregnancy, you sought the best for your baby by consuming a balanced diet and getting the right nutrients for your growing baby. Babies in the womb are already able to learn the the ‘melody’ of their mothers voices. They can also respond to outside stimuli such as music and touch.

Studies by leading researchers such as Thomas R. Verny and Rene Van de Carr have revealed that well stimulated babies sleep better, are more alert, confident, and happier than babies who were not stimulated.

Your baby is born with over 100 billion brain cells. From birth, your baby’s brain is busy building its wiring’ system. Most of her brain cells are not connected to each other. They must be organized into networks that require millions of connections, or synapses, between them.
