My solution for the text field, is this fine?

Alright so in the video, Pasan creates another notification for moving the text field back into place.

The way I saw it, we had a textFieldShouldReturn method, and we used the animateWithDuration to move it up, so I just added an animateWithDuration inside of that method and it worked fine. I see nothing wrong with this and it works fine, just wanted to ask if there's anything wrong with doing it this way? The only downside I could see is that you don't have the notification if you are trying to notify multiple objects.

This is what my textFieldShouldReturn looks like:

func textFieldShouldReturn(textField: UITextField) -> Bool {
        textField.resignFirstResponder()

        UIView.animateWithDuration(0.4) {
            self.textFieldBottomConstraint.constant = 40
            self.view.layoutIfNeeded()
        }

        return true
    }
