• Always make sure that you wash your hands or use a hand sanitizer before handling your baby. It is important to note that new-born babies don't really have a strong immune system. Hence, they are more susceptible to infection than other kids. So, you should not forget to maintain personal hygiene and do your best to avoid the chances of child infection.

• While holding your child, carefully support your baby's head as well as neck. Avoid shaking your baby, at any cost. Your baby is tender, so make sure that you handle him or her in the right manner, to avoid accidents.

• While travelling or taking your kid out for a ride, it is important for you to ensure that your baby is securely fastened into the carrier, stroller, or car seat. Besides this, you should also avoid taking your baby along with you on any such trip which is bouncy and is too far from basic amenities for your child.
