In this episode of the 'Mothering From Within' podcast, Kaili Ets, pediatric occupational therapist and mom of two, explores the world of sensory processing in babies.
Learn about the eight sensory systems, including the often overlooked vestibular, proprioception, and interoception.
Kaili offers practical tips for recognizing sensory overload in your little ones and supports you in trusting your parental instincts to foster their development.
Plus, discover how different birth experiences can influence your baby’s sensory processing and how to create a soothing environment.
Kaili also shares her personal journey and insights from her own children, emphasizing that sensory processing differences are not a result of parental fault but a natural part of development.
