Do we really have to worry about that at their age?<\/p>\n<p>It might feel strange to imagine a toddler with <a href=\"https:\/\/babysparks.com\/2020\/06\/04\/signs-and-symptoms-of-toddler-anxiety\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>anxiety<\/strong><\/a>, depression or other mental health challenges, but it can happen. In fact, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) states that in the U.S. alone, about 4.4 million children 3 to 17 have anxiety, about 1.9 children 2 to 7 experience depression, and 6 million children in this same age group are diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).<\/p>\n<p>These statistics make it clear that mental health should be a primary focus of parents and caregivers, even for young children that haven\u2019t reached school age.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, the youngest population of babies and toddlers may not get the mental health checkups and help they need. This is primarily because of stigmas that make us believe that young children are immune to mental health struggles. Statistics are showing, however, that anxiety and depression diagnoses in young children are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/childrensmentalhealth\/data.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>increasing in recent years<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><em><strong>Highlights:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Although it&#8217;s hard to imagine a toddler with mental health challenges, statistics show it is not uncommon.<\/li>\n<li>It&#8217;s important to focus on mental health from day one!<\/li>\n<li>You can build strong mental health by providing emotional support, talking about feelings, modeling how to cope with big emotions, helping your child develop self-esteem, and ensuring that caregivers also promote mental health.<\/li>\n<li>If you notice signs such as extreme anger, inconsolable crying, an inability or unwillingness to bond with caregivers, or frequent sadness, check in with your pediatrician for guidance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2>Why It\u2019s Never to Early to Work on Mental Health<\/h2>\n<p>Although babies and toddlers often seem carefree, they too can experience stressful situations. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.apa.org\/news\/press\/releases\/2011\/02\/babies-mental-illness\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Research shows<\/strong><\/a> that children age 0 to 5 can experience mental health issues, but they often get overlooked because of their age.<\/p>\n<p>Babies and toddlers are at a critical stage when their experiences shape their futures. It\u2019s essential to promote mental health from the moment a baby is born through affection, bonding, and security. The way parents and caregivers interact with and help little ones through situations that affect their mental health can set them up to effectively handle stressful situations as they get older.<\/p>\n<h2>Promoting Mental Health Through Toddlerhood and Beyond<\/h2>\n<p>Babies and toddlers may not understand mental health, but they can certainly feel big emotions. Here are a few tips for promoting mental health in your little one:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Be the emotional support they need.<\/strong> Children of all ages look to their parents and caregivers for emotional support. It\u2019s why your baby calms down when you come into the room and your toddler runs to you for a hug after a disagreement with a playmate. Be emotionally available to your baby with plenty of smiles, hugs, and kind words.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Talk about emotions.<\/strong> Toddlers can start to talk about emotions with you. You can help your toddler work through emotions by <a href=\"https:\/\/babysparks.com\/2019\/10\/02\/more-feelings-more-words-the-importance-of-feelings-words\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>labeling their feelings<\/strong><\/a>: \u201cYou feel disappointed that we can\u2019t go to the park right now. I understand.\u201d You can also label your own emotions, explaining why you feel a certain way.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Set a good example.<\/strong> Being in-tune with your own emotions can show your baby or toddler that there\u2019s nothing wrong with feeling them. But, be mindful of how you react to situations. Take a deep breath, meditate, or use another favorite calming technique to cope with your own emotions. Help your child learn to cope with their emotions, too (see our BabySparks activities <em>Calming Bottle <\/em>and <em>Building a Cozy Corner <\/em>for inspiration).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Know your child\u2019s caregivers.<\/strong> Daycare providers, babysitters, friends, and family who are around your child also play a role in your child\u2019s mental health. Be sure to choose supportive, loving caregivers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Nurture self-esteem.<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/babysparks.com\/2020\/07\/17\/raising-a-self-confident-child\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Building confidence<\/strong><\/a> in your little one is a crucial step toward fostering positive mental health. Give them plenty of opportunities for <a href=\"https:\/\/babysparks.com\/2020\/07\/15\/self-care-milestones-25-36-months\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>age-appropriate independence<\/strong><\/a>. Be sure to <a href=\"https:\/\/babysparks.com\/2018\/03\/26\/nurturing-a-growth-mindset-in-your-child\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><b>praise their efforts<\/b><\/a>. You might even stand in front of the mirror each morning with your child and name a few things you love about them!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There are many ways to nurture your child&#8217;s mental health early on, but if see signs of extreme anger, inconsolable crying, an inability or unwillingness to bond with caregivers, or frequent sadness, it&#8217;s a good idea to check in with your pediatrician for guidance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baby and toddler mental health?
