After observing the video called “Babies” , I decided I wanted to do my baby observation on baby Hattie. Hattie is from San Francisco . She comes from an American family. Like any ordinary American(white) family , Hattie seemed to be raised more like in the modern days comparing to the other three babies. Hattie grew up in a good environment. She was raised by both parents. I believe that being raised by both parents could really make a difference. She had both parents that were able to protect her, love her, & demonstrate there love towards her.
Hattie’s parents were present to capture every memorable moment. Like her first smile,laugh,tears,steps,& most of all her first words. They knew when something was wrong with her or when she felt happy. It all started when beautiful Hattie was just born and showed her first smile. In the video is shows parents and I believe grandparents showing her affection. As the days went by it showed that Hattie enjoyed being in mother’s arms. Hattie’s mother is rocking her with a rocking chair. The baby could feel her mothers warm affection. It shows the baby that she has her mother and feels safe.
Little by little her parents are showing her different things such as her mother reading to her and father bathing her. Then, it shows that Hattie’s a little bit older. Older enough to be sitting in the couch by herself. While she was sitting on the couch , she got this strange feeling. She couldn’t possibly know what it was. She made an awkward face expression but it was just the hiccups. Hattie and grandma are bonding together when baby Hattie decides to suck on grandmas finger. Mother is taking Hattie to her regular check up and gets weight. One thing that caught my attention was that Hattie enjoyed admiring herself in the mirror.
The Essay on How My Parents Raised Me
As far as I can remember I have had a happy childhood. I don’t have a dramatic or a traumatic experience as to how my parents raised me like most of the other kids. My parents handled my wrongdoings and mistakes very calmly, although I can’t remember doing something that’s very bad. I guess you could say that I’m spoiled but I don’t think I am. Being an only child I think helped on making my ...
Like her reflection was amusing her. The there comes quality time with mommy and Hattie at a yoga class. There is this lady trying to demonstrating Hattie how to do air plane arms and showing her some arm movements. Kattie was placed on a baby jumper where she kept jumping up and down. Nonstop,its like if she was full of energy. She seemed to be more aware as the days went passing by. Someone was vacuuming and she just kept staring. It shows that she has a good sense of hearing. It took place where she was sitting on the floor next to her cat. She was making theses gestures and noises.
It almost showed like if she was pushing and trying to do poop. I noticed she wasn’t a baby who enjoyed being in water due to the fact that she was in the jacuzzi with her mother full of toys and bubbles. All you could hear is Hattie crying. By observing that it showed that she wanted her mother to take her out of the water. The amusing part comes when Hattie starts crawling. Shes being independent by taking that step. Hattie’s mother is reading to her and shes trying to make Kattie repeat after her. For example, her mother asks Hattie “what did the elephant say”?
Her mother says “ooohhh oohhh” . Hattie puts her hands in the air. She has more hand movement. Shes pealing a banana and eating it herself. She was able to identify what she didn’t like from the banana. The father takes her to the park where Hattie is placed in a toy car. He places her in this slide with her car . She slides all the way till she hits the sand and falls. Every parent cant seemed to wait till there child hits the stage where there able to take there first steps or may I say walk. Hattie holds on to the chair and makes sure shes holding on well .
She lets go and takes her first steps towards walking. There was a point where Hattie got a little aggressive with her mommy and slapped her crossed her face. Her mothers reaction was surprising but she got a book called ” No Hitting” and showed it to Hattie. Hattie seemed not to like to be surrounded by many people because her father took her to this thing where parents are singing to there child. She got up and imdintaly walk to the door. She was trying to open the door and get out of there. biosocial : Hatties phyical growth was with no complications. She was a healthy baby.
The Essay on Megan Renee Sara Baby Parents
Megan Renee Please, just let me hold her, she pleaded, just once Im sorry, replied the plump nurse coldly, but I have my orders, and besides, it will only make things that much worse. To an outsider, it was a heart-wrenching scene. To the hospital, it was something that they dealt with on a daily basis. To her family, it was a mistake that never should have happened. To Sara, it was a day that ...
From a new born where she would experience changes from the brain to to growth of her bones. She showed fine motor when she tried grabbing her grandmas finger. Or when she was in a yoga class and the teacher was teacher her how to move her arms and fingers like an airplane. Also when shes trying to hold a banana with her hands and eats it. (0-5months) For gross motor is when she was jumping up and down on her baby jumper,starts crawing,and walking. (6-7months) Cognitive:When her mom would tell her to repeat something . she would. for example when her father told her to her to say cow”mooo” .
It showed that she trust her parents. One of the memories that Hattie would always remember would be when she was in the park and she fell in the sand with her car toy. According to Bretherton & Munholland,1999;Thompson & Raikes, 2003) they stated that ” Infants use their early relationships to develop a working model,a set of asumptions that become a frame of reference that can be called on later on in life”. An example that “Schaffer,2000” stated was that “a 1 year old girl might develop a working model, based on her mother’s responses to her, that people can not be trusted”.
So all her life shes gonna apply that as a model whenever she meets someone new. Psychosoical:Hattie has a bubby personality. Even though she had her parents to support her ,she was one independent baby.. As in for relationships she spend her time with both parents. & with both of them she experience different thing. I believe that the way a child is raised makes a big impact in there life. That there going to go based on that. For example “my sister taught her baby to not be independent”, she would always baby him and he wasnt allowed to do alot of things with her getting mad.
So now that hes older the consqunces to that is that he cant make decsions on his own. He feels insure. According to Erikson’s theory , the first crisis is trust versus mistrust. I believe that Hattie showed trust with her parents but not so much with her surroundings. For example when the father took her to this one room and it was full of parents singing to there children. It showed that she wasnt comfortable being there. The next crisis would be autonomy versus shame and doubt. Hattie showed autonomy because it was really rare when she would do something bad and for her to feel shame.

Social as well as cultural norms, values, and conventions can direct and control the child’s behavior through the progression of social evaluation.

The only thing she would probably feel shame would be when she slapped her mother on the face. As i was watching the movie , I was observing the strengths and the areas where Hattie has to develop. I believe that Hattie’s strengths were good hearing skills,strong ,good observer, but most of all very independent. As a teacher I would say that there wasnt really any area where Hattie needed to experience more or growth. I suggest the parents to continue doing what there doing due to the fact that there raising an amazing child.
