    Newborn reflexes are innate, involuntary responses that help newborns survive. Some key reflexes include the rooting reflex, which causes newborns to turn their head towards anything that touches their cheek, and the Moro reflex, where newborns spread their arms and legs if startled. Understanding these reflexes helps nurses and parents care for and soothe infants.
