Attachment

[Sandbox Sally]

Sometimes, leaving an insecure little one to cry on the floor when they want/need to be held can backfire. Sometimes it can breach a trust that you're trying to establish. I do babywearing, and it has worked very well so far. The little one doesn't know you, has been plunked into your home away from the only security he or she knows. Some children are able to adjust to this, but just as many cannot. I find that babywearing creates a trust with the baby, and with this trust, the newbie will more quickly feel secure and cared for, thereby lessening adjustment times.
