Dream - Nikita Willy since giving birth to her first son, Issa Xander Djokosoetono, decided not to use a babysitter's services. She wants to fully take care of her son and be assisted by her family.

Together with her husband, Indra Priawan, she is quite compact in taking care of Issa. They are used to being a 'team' since preparing for Issa's birth in the US, where there is not much help. As a mother, Niki is also known as a figure who practices gentle parenting.

Through his social media, Niki often shares tips on taking care of his son with the concept and principle of gentle parenting, which prioritizes communication, collaboration, without pressuring, blaming, or punishing if the child's behavior does not align with their desires.

It is undeniable that sometimes as a mother, emotions are drained. Especially when a mother feels tired and has to face a tantrum or a child throwing a fit. Nikita Willy has experienced it too, even to the point of crying.

The following text in 'Bahasa' translates to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "It was revealed by Niki on her Instagram @nikitawillyofficial94. She told that at that time she had just returned from her activities and was facing Issa who was having a tantrum."

"It was quite a long tantrum, just like a typical toddler, he was trying to express his anger and frustration when he didn't get what he wanted," wrote Niki."

After Issa fell asleep, Niki felt so exhausted. She felt her energy was completely drained. She didn't even realize that she was crying. "Without realizing it, suddenly I started crying because I felt drained," Niki expressed.

The situation made Niki realize that what he experienced meant that he had to learn to manage his emotions well. "When children learn to regulate their emotions, we are also learning to face it and become the best for them," said Niki.

The condition is not a failure or an inability to manage emotions for Niki. On the contrary, crying in that moment allows her to accept her emotional state well. "It's not because we are weak or we have failed, but because we are respecting our own feelings," she said.
