First step is to observe your child. See what calms the baby. If you feel that the baby isn't comforting immediately, do not just hand him/her over. Give yourself time, practice will make you perfect. Ensure that the baby is close to your body. The beat should be steady as well as consistent. You can try putting on some music to calm the baby.
