All babies will develop at different rates and just because they achieve one skill quickly, other skills may take longer to develop. If you are unsure what your baby should be doing, take a look at https://pathways.org/ to see the main milestones and abilities through their first years.
In order to help support your baby’s development, please see our helpful advice sheets and videos. It may also be helpful to share these with your child’s nursery or preschool. If you are concerned that your baby is not reaching their milestones or concerned about the way they move, then please discuss with your health visitor, GP or call our advice line to speak to one of our team.
