No ka mālamaʻana i kahi hiamoe maʻamau a maikaʻi no kahi keiki, pono e mālamaʻia kekahi mau rula:
1. E noho mālie. ʻAʻole kū like ka moeʻuhane a me ka hopuʻana,ʻaʻohe mea weliweli ma ka moeʻuhane. Ma keʻano he kūlana, ua moe ka moeʻuhane weliweli no nā keiki a pau i piha i ka 3-5 mau makahiki.
2. Ke hanaʻia nei kahi'ōpiopio e holo puni ana i ka lumi a hāpai i kona mau lima. Ma kēlāʻano, ponoʻoe e hōʻoiaʻaʻoleʻo ia e hōʻeha i kona iho. E kali a hiki i ka pauʻana o ka moeʻuhane, ae mālama i ka palekana o ke keiki.
3. Mai haʻi i ke keiki e pili ana i kahi moeʻuhane i ke kakahiaka. Inā he nui nā keiki a kaʻohana,ʻaʻole lākou e kamaʻilio e pili ana i ka mea i hanaʻia. E huhū ke keiki ināʻikeʻo ia ua neleʻo ia i ka mālama iā ia iho.
4. Hiki iāʻoe ke nānā i ka hiamoe i loko o ke keiki a kuhikuhi i ka manawa o nā moeʻuhane weliweli. I kēia kūlana,ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hoʻomahaʻana o ke keiki i ka hapalua hora ma mua o ka hiamoe weliweli, no laila e hōʻino ana i ke alapuni o ka moe a me ke keakeaʻana i ka papa hana o nā moeʻuhane.
Eia hou, aia nā manaʻo manaʻo nui:
1. Hiki iāʻoe ke hoʻonui i ka lōʻihi o ka hiamoe. Hiki i kahi keiki liʻiliʻi ke hiamoe i ka lā. ʻO ka hapanui pinepine, nā moe hiamoe i nā keiki ke hana i ka wā e hoʻomaha ai ke keiki i ka lā. ʻO ke keiki kao,ʻaʻole i moe i kahi o 12 mau lā ma ka lālani, hāʻule i ka hiamoe nui aʻike pinepine i nā moeʻuhane i loko o ka moeʻuhane. Hiki i nā 'ōpio ke waiho i kahi moe i ka wanaʻao a hāʻawi i ka hiamoe maikaʻi i ke kakahiaka. He mea paʻakikī loa no nā kamaliʻi nāwaliwali e hoʻololi i kahi hiamoe nui i kahi maʻalahi.
2. Inā hopohopoʻole ke keiki,ʻaʻohe mea e hoʻonāukiuki iā ia, a laila, he mea maʻamau kona moe. E noi i kāu keiki ma mua o ka hiamoeʻana, mai hopohopo inā he mea. ʻO nā keiki hānai a me nā'ōpiopio i mua o ka wā hiamoe pinepine e hopohopo aʻaʻole pono e hiamoe maikaʻi. Ma mua o ka hiamoe, pono i ke keiki keʻike i nā manaʻo maikaʻi, e hoʻomanaʻo i nā hola maikaʻi a me nā mea maikaʻi i hanaʻia i ka lā. ʻO ka hana a nā mākua ke hāʻawi i ke keiki i kahi palekana a me ka palekana.
3. Mai hoʻopau i ka mālamaʻana o ke keiki i nā pō maʻamau. Ināʻike ke keiki aia ia i kēia mau manawa e hopohopo anaʻo ia a pili pono iā ia, hiki iā ia ke ala aʻe ma hope o ka manawa, a hiki i kona mau mākua e hoʻomaha iā ia. No laila,ʻo ka pilikia wale nō ka ikaika a me ka ikaika. Mai hānai i ke keiki, hāʻawi iā ia i ka meaʻai a me ka inu.
4. Inā hele mai kahi keiki iāʻoe i ka pō a haʻi mai i kahi moeʻuhane weliweli, e hoʻolohe pono iā ia. E ho'āʻo e noho me ia no kekahi manawa, e hele i kona keʻena, e hoʻololi i ka mālamalama. E mālama pono iʻole kahi mea weliweli e hana.
5. I kekahi manawa, hiki iāʻoe ke hoʻokuʻu i kahi keiki e noho i loko o kou keʻena i ka pō, akā he mea'ē aʻe kēia i ke kānāwai. I ka pō aʻe, e hele ka keiki e moe i loko o kona wahi moe.
6. Pono ka keiki e loaʻa kekahi mea e hana ana i ka hana o "mea pale" mai nā moeʻuhane weliweli a me nā moeʻuhane -ʻo ke kukui'ōwili, a me kahi lemu. He mea hōʻoluʻolu kēia mea no ke keiki, e kōkua i ka pēpē e hoʻoholo i nā moeʻuhaneʻino a me ka makaʻuʻole iā lākou.
7. Ke kamaʻilio pū me ke keiki ma mua o ka moeʻana e kōkua iā ia e hoʻokuʻu i nā pilikia he nui, e like me nā mea i hanaʻia e nā kiʻiʻoniʻoni a me nā pākeke paha kahi e hana ai kaʻino. Hiki iāʻoe ke kamaʻilio pū me kāu keiki e pili ana i ka mea i hanaʻia i ka lā.
8. E heluhelu i kāu keiki i kahi puke maikaʻi no ka pō, e hīmeni i kahi mele, hāʻawi iā ia i kahi mea pāʻani. ʻO ka mea nui loa no ka holoʻana o ke keiki me ka maluhia, no laila,ʻo ka hana no ka moeʻana he meaʻoluʻolu a hoʻomaha.
