It is difficult to see, b/c of the orientation, but after viewing it a couple of times, you can see that the women is bouncing and patting a baby on her lap in a rhythmic bouncing motion. Make sure to use a pillow or towel to support neck. It is my go-to-move for when Baby is overwhelmed and overtired--puts her to sleep in a matter of seconds.
