Benefits of the TummyTime!™ Method

Tummy time is vital for healthy social, emotional, physical and neurological development of your baby:

• Promotes social/emotional connection with reassuring interaction with parent during this sometimes challenging yet essential activity

• Facilitates breastfeeding by optimally mobilizing and engaging baby’s face, tongue, jaw, throat, and neck muscles

• Promotes optimal head shape by offsetting the time baby lies on his or her back (decreases head flattening/molding). Improves posture creating optimal symmetry, balance, and natural alignment

• Eases colic & reflux through weight bearing on tummy, reducing gas and stimulating healthy digestive function

• Elicits, utilizes, and integrates baby’s oral, primitive, and postural reflexes


Taught by Ananda Elise Foley, CST

 As a midwife and doula I always told parents to do tummy time. If baby didn't like it or if parents told me baby "hated" tummy time, I didnt have the know how to trouble-shoot or recognize the needs their infant was trying to reveal in their difficulty with TT.  After studying with TTM originator Michelle Emanuel, I know that TT is just far too important to skip and have developed extensive skills for assisting babies' enjoyment and access to Tummy time. It is essential for baby's brain and development, spacial awareness, neurological regulation and spinal health. Tummy time experiences are directly related to the child's ability to begin to self-organize for the long, steady repetition needed for crawling, sitting, standing and walking. I am delighted to share this life-changing program with you, so you can begin this fun approach right away with your baby. It is so user-friendly, you will find yourself applying it in other ways you care-give your child and pattern a lifelong bond. This truly is the best part. Appropriate for newborn to pre-crawling ages.


Through 18 years experience as an NICU nurse, TTM founder Michelle Emanuel RN, OT, CST had the benefit of immediate feedback since the infants were attached to machines on which she could track the immediate response to positional changes and craniosacral therapy. She became passionate in finding what best supports the parasympathetic nervous system and neurological response, decreasing fight-or-flight response in babies and optimizing their growth. She found key relationships between proprioception (skin to skin, joint-pressure, cuddling, body-moulding) with infants' calming/ self-regulation. Baby's oxygen saturation would come up, heart rates smooth out and new developments become available. Families who continue care at home find the best results.
