Learning to walk
Perhaps the most important milestone in your child's life is learning to walk - an enormous step towards independence. As your baby goes from leaning up against the furniture to stepping hesitantly to your reassuring arms, and then onto running and jumping with ease, they will leave babyhood behind and start to become more independent.

How this starts
Over the course of their first year your child will slowly gain better coordination and muscle strength - learning to support themselves and turn over before progressing to pulling up and standing at approximately eight months. After that it's a matter of developing confidence and balance – with most babies taking their first steps around about 9 and 12 months, and are walking competently by 14 or 15 months. Don't be too concerned, though, if your baby takes a little longer; it is perfectly normal for some children not to walk until their 16th or 17th month.
