Neonatal Developmental Care

Neonatal developmental care is a specialized approach that supports premature and ill newborns’ growth and development by minimizing stress and promoting their natural abilities. It involves practices like gentle handling, quiet environments, skin-to-skin contact, and promoting breastfeeding, all designed to mimic the conditions of the womb. This care helps improve infants’ physical health, supports brain development, and encourages bonding with caregivers, ultimately fostering better long-term outcomes for vulnerable newborns.
