When it comes to newborns, we expect them to be delicate and take their time developing motor skills. But Nyilah Daise Tzabari, born three weeks late, is proving that babies can surprise us in the most extraordinary ways. Within just days of her arrival, this super baby was already lifting her head and crawling across her cot—leaving her first-time parents in total shock.
Meet Nyilah: The Super Baby Who’s Breaking All the Rules
Nyilah’s story began on February 27, 2023, when she made a late but spectacular entrance into the world, weighing 7 lbs 6 oz. Her birth was extraordinary in itself, but her behavior from day one quickly caught the attention of her parents, Samantha Mitchell and her fiancé, Ofer Tzabari. Within just two and a half days, little Nyilah was already showing off some serious strength and coordination.
The Moment Nyilah Shocked Her Parents: Crawling at Just 3 Days Old
The most astonishing moment for Samantha came when Nyilah was barely three days old. In a TikTok video that has since gone viral, Samantha captures the magical moment when her newborn lifts her head, props herself up with tiny arms, and starts crawling across her cot. “I’ve never seen a baby do this before,” Samantha, a first-time mom with over 20 years of babysitting experience, said. The video shows her complete astonishment, with Samantha exclaiming, “Oh my gosh. Mom! She’s crawling!”
It wasn’t just Samantha who was floored by the sight—her mother, who was in the room, urged her to record it because no one would have believed the unbelievable feat. The video went viral and quickly amassed over 57.5 million views, with many viewers sharing their amazement at how quickly Nyilah was advancing.
Why Is Nyilah Developing So Quickly?
Most babies start to crawl between 6 to 12 months, but Nyilah seemed to be in a hurry. According to Healthline, early development like this is rare but not unheard of. Babies develop at different rates, and sometimes, they hit milestones earlier than expected. Samantha believes Nyilah’s early strength may be linked to her time spent in the womb, joking that “this is what happens when you spend too much time in mommy’s belly.”
The early signs of her motor skills were just the beginning. By 18 days old, Nyilah was already rolling from her belly to her back, and by one month, she was smiling. At just three months, Nyilah had already started testing her physical strength by playfully slapping her mom in the face!
Is Nyilah a Future Athlete?
As Nyilah grows, her development continues to astonish her parents. By two months, she was already rolling from her back to her belly, and by three months, she was pushing herself up with her arms. “She’s always trying to stand,” says Samantha, “She puts so much weight on her legs and refuses to sit down.” Although Nyilah isn’t standing on her own yet, her refusal to buckle her knees has led Samantha to believe that walking might come sooner than expected.
Her parents aren’t pushing her to stand; she simply does it on her own, eager to explore her physical capabilities. “She’s so strong that she doesn’t even need head and neck support anymore,” Samantha added. “We’re amazed by how alert she is and how much energy she has.”
Baby Nyilah: A Social Butterfly and Early Talker?
Not only is Nyilah physically advanced, but she’s also showing signs of early communication skills. At just seven weeks old, she was already mimicking the words spoken by her parents, attempting to say “I love you” in her baby babble. Samantha explained, “If we laugh at a noise she makes, she’ll repeat it. She’s already figuring out that sounds get a reaction.”
Nyilah is also a happy and social baby, often smiling and laughing at the smallest interactions. “She is always smiling. The second you smile at her, she starts smiling back,” Samantha shared. It’s clear that Nyilah’s charm is not just in her physical strength but also in her sweet and joyful personality.
The Parenting Experience of Samantha and Ofer
For first-time parents like Samantha and Ofer, Nyilah’s rapid development is both a blessing and a challenge. “I never thought babies could do this,” said Ofer, who admitted that he thought Nyilah’s actions were normal until others pointed out how unusual they were for her age.
Samantha, on the other hand, has spent much of her life babysitting and is used to seeing babies go through typical developmental stages. But Nyilah is proving that she is anything but typical. “I sometimes wish she could just be a baby,” Samantha said with a laugh, adding that her baby’s strength and energy often leave her feeling like she’s never had a newborn at all.
What Does the Future Hold for Nyilah?
It’s clear that Nyilah is on an accelerated path to development, and her parents are excited—and a little overwhelmed—by the prospect of raising such a lively and determined child. From lifting her head at only three days old to showing early signs of talking and walking, Nyilah is a baby unlike any other.
Samantha is already preparing for the next big steps, with thoughts of baby-proofing the house as Nyilah continues to grow stronger and more independent every day. With her extraordinary strength and early milestones, Nyilah is already proving that she’s going to be a force to be reckoned with in the future.
