Even the smallest act of kindness can make a huge impact on people's lives - especially towards stressed-out parents looking after small children.
One mum has thanked a thoughtful stranger who handed a note and $20AUS (£10) to her nine-month-old daughter while they were riding a commuter train in Sydney, Australia.
The amazed mother shared a picture of the hand-written letter from the mystery "man in a suit" to social media.
The accompanying letter read: “This is not a gift. It is an investment. Please let your baby know that an old Aboriginal man invested $20 to her college fund.

The mother uploaded the picture to the r/Syndey sub-Reddit where users praised the man for his selfless act, Yahoo News Australia reported .
One user said: "That man invests on the young way better than the government's.
"The road will be long and steep but tell her there are people along the way kind enough to help."
Another said: "This is a very good message and an example. This needs more attention"
The interaction wasn't the only to be witnessed by commuters in recent days.
Yesterday, one passenger left a bouquet of flowers on a London Underground Central Line carriage with a sweet note attached .
It read: "Free flowers to anyone who needs their day brightening up".
The post was originally shared on the London Reddit page with the poster writing: "Some lovely soul left a bouquet of flowers on the Central Line for anyone who needs cheering up :)".
"People can be great sometimes," wrote Reddit user joeciocci.
While another user commented: "This is the lift that I needed today".
