Kalki Koechlin is acing the relaxed parenting style

A casual scroll through Kalki’s Instagram feed and it’s easy to spot her little baby girl Sappho. “I’ve chosen a name that works for either gender and that is representative of a gay person because I want my child to have that freedom of movement under the many umbrellas of gender that we have,” said Kalki Koechlin. The Margarita With A Straw actor opted for a water birth for her baby, something that’s gained popularity among new-age moms in recent times. Kalki and her Israeli beau Guy Hershberg (a classical pianist) have also spoken about wanting to be engaged parents and not have specific rules or expectations. And Kalki’s Instagram posts are a window into her parenting style. Take a look:

Sappho has certainly learned the values of being thankful (to each and everyone) right from the start.

So thankful to the whole team at Tulip Women’s Care and to my to doctors @docsheetalsabharwal and @drrvpunjabi who simply refused to give up on me even when after 17 hours I was so tired I begged them to take the baby out anyway they could and they said no, you’ve come this far and you’re going to have your natural waterbirth, and an hour later Sappho was born. You guys are miracle workers! 💞🌼 #nevergiveup

They say what a child learns at a tender age often moulds their personality and no doubt Kalki is keeping the fact in mind.

Sappho also gets private in-house concerts from mom on good lessons.

But most important of all, she has learnt that afternoon naps hold magical powers.
