Individual sessions taking place in your home.
Personalized one-on-one sessions in the comfort of your home, tailored to support your baby’s unique development.
• In the sessions, we’ll take time to observe and assess your baby’s unique challenges and needs. You’ll learn how to support and promote their development through movement, touch, and play that strengthen their abilities and help them overcome difficulties.
• These sessions are especially beneficial for premature babies, babies who are easily startled, those with motor challenges (such as torticollis or a strong side preference), or developmental delays.
• Private sessions are also a wonderful opportunity for parents who want to create a shared, engaging experience for the entire family.
A one-on-one session designed to support you after birth, offering essential knowledge and hands-on tools to help you navigate life with your newborn with confidence.
• Understand and respond effectively to your baby’s crying
• Soothe colic and reduce tummy discomfort
• Calm your baby and support better sleep routines
• Support your baby through touch to prepare for more effective tummy time

This meeting is your opportunity to build confidence in your parenting abilities and begin your journey with reassurance, competence, and joy.
Join group sessions where you, as parents, will explore your baby’s world, support their development through play and movement, and learn how to create a nurturing environment.
Workshops:
Each workshop includes five weekly sessions. In each meeting, we explore key topics relevant to your baby’s developmental stage, discover fun and engaging games, and experience new ways to support emotional, motor, and cognitive development.
Courses:
The course accompanies you and your baby throughout the first year of life. Together, we’ll explore the key developmental milestones and learn how to prepare your baby for each stage with confidence.
You’ll learn activities and games that promote development and help your baby connect with their body and the world around them. In addition to practical learning and educational content, the course offers space for open conversation and free play, giving both parents and babies the opportunity to build friendships and meaningful connections.
My name is Ayala Zaidenberg, I am an Infant Development Instructor and a mother of two wonderful children. I have always enjoyed the presence of children and babies, but it only became my profession after the birth of my second child. During the first year of his life, I lived in a foreign country far away from my support circles. It was truly a difficult time for me. The First Step method gave me the tools I needed to manage the situation and helped me to become more confident in my abilities as a mother. As a result, I decided to make a career change. Today, I support parents in overcoming the challenges of having a new baby at home, and I hope to help you as well to rejoice in the great pleasures that this period brings.
My aim is not to train babies or speed up their development, but to support it. Each baby has his or her own pace. But often babies get stuck at a certain stage and fail to progress because they have not acquired a certain skill. It can also lead to incorrect patterns of movement that provide a shaky foundation for further motor development. With some guidance and after experimenting with the right activities and games, you can help your baby acquire the skills they need. My aim is to help each child progress at their own pace, enjoy their body and get the most out of it.
The First Step method was developed by Shai Silberbusch and originated in Feldenkrais. First Step is a holistic method that emphasizes the connection between the babies’ developmental environment and their learning abilities. It’s goal is to provide each baby with optimal conditions for development, to cultivate a sense of confidence in their bodies and capabilities, which will accompany them for the rest of their lives
