Document Summary
Encourage the infant to bond with the primary caregiver. Collaborate with parents to promote consistency at home and at child care. Young infants: maintain eye contact from the moment of birth, cry contagiously when another infant cries. 6-7 months may start to show stranger anxiety. Older infants: recognize several different relatives and caregivers and react to them in different ways, can play alone for very brief periods, may still show anxiety when approached by a stranger. Enjoy being with other children and imitating what they are doing. Form attachments to transitional objects like blankets or stuffed animals: may become distressed when a special person leaves the room and gives a special welcome when they return. Young infants: use low voice to quiet and comfort the baby and higher voices to engage them in play. Provide infants with opportunities to look at and babble with each other. Provide many opportunities for social interaction with children as well as adults.
