If you live near supportive parents, try to see them as often as possible, and once your child is old enough, give them time alone with him so they can really get to know each other and have the chance to create their own meaningful traditions and routines. If you don’t live close by, make sure you have regular dates via webcam.

Grandparents can tell stories and share songs or new words, and in this way your baby will become familiar with their faces and voices, so that when they do get together he will recognize them immediately and quickly feel comfortable.
Posting photo albums and videos online regularly will keep everyone in the loop, and, in turn, grandparents can provide a webcam tour of grandma’s garden or grandpa’s snoring dog to keep them involved in each other’s daily lives.
Knowing how much his grandparents love him will build your child’s confidence.
Now you are a parent you may find you understand your own parents more. You may look back on your childhood, and on the twists and turns of your relationship with your parents, and be able to put yourself in their shoes. It’s not hard to see why your mom went through the roof when you got home at 2 am, now that you know how deep the love for your little one runs.
You are a model for your child in terms of how a parent should be treated, so make sure you are loving, open, respectful, and generous with your parents, so that your child will follow your example. Most importantly, take the time to nurture this special relationship so your child can benefit from the precious love and attention of someone who loves him just as unconditionally as you do.
