4. My maternity leave is almost finished, how does the Zaky help if I am not there?
The Zaky is great when you have to leave your baby with someone else - at the childcare facility, when it stays with a babysitter or goes to visit the grandparents. The Zaky will provide a constant and familiar support giving your baby a sense of security. It also assists the caregivers on positioning the baby and the baby will feel and smell mom. Ask your caregiver to look at our "Recommended Uses" so she/he gets familiar with the Zaky. If you can, scent your Zaky when your baby needs to go with someone else.
5. I am a new father/mother and I cannot be there with my newborn child. Can the Zaky help?
If you must go away for a long period of time, leave a Zaky and a loving note to your wife/husband that says something like: "I am leaving my hand so our baby feels my touch until I return..." And don't forget to call..!
6. I live away from my new grandchild, how does the Zaky help?
It is difficult sometimes for grandparents to be away from the children. Send your scented Zaky to your daughter/daughter in law with a note saying something like: "Here is a hand that can help you until I can be there to do it personally.". Or with a note to your grandchild saying something like: "This is for you so you can always feel mom/grandmom around."
7. Isn't the Zaky too heavy to place over a baby?
No. It is just right. The Zaky weighs approximately 1 pound and it is also used at Neonatal Intensive Care Units for babies that weigh less than one pound. By shifting the filling to the "forearm", the weight of the "hand" is controlled depending on the size and the condition of the infant. Bigger babies need more weight, and the user can decide how much weight to place on the baby.
