How can Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) help a newborn?

Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) involves skin-to-skin contact between the baby and parent, which is incredibly effective for bonding, regulating the baby's temperature, and stabilizing their heart rate. Many parents also find it helpful for infants dealing with jaundice, alongside consistent breastfeeding and physician-approved sunlight exposure. It provides a comforting, secure environment that mimics the womb and supports overall development in the early weeks.
