How can I prevent a react component to render every time parent component renders?

I have a single TextField input on one form, the problem is that when I type on it the displayed/render of the value just typed has a kind of delay, and I want to prevent this.

Context: The TextField is label, name and id come from a state object called 'formInput' and they change their value every time a botton is pressed. The value of this single input is stored on a different state object called 'inputsValue' that changes inside a 'handleChange' function called on the onChange prop of the TextField.

The problem is that Suspicious: I made a "BouncyLetters" component and used it within a component that also renders a form, I use the BouncyLetters for the title of the form. When I remove this component from the page the typing display at normal speed. So I think disabling this from re-rendering always might solve the problem, idk. Thanks

Code:

export const Contact = (props) => {
  const [formInput, setFormInput] = useState({input: 'name', label: 'Type name'});
¿   const [inputsValue, setInputsValue] = useState({name: '', email: '', message: ''});

    const handleClick = () => {
        switch (formInput.input) {
            case 'name':
                setFormInput({ input: 'email', label: 'type email' });
                break; 
            case 'email':
                setFormInput({ input: 'message', label: 'type message' });
                break;
            case 'message':
                setFormInput({ input: 'name', label: 'type name' });
                handleSubmission();
                break;
            default:
                break;
        }
    }
    const handleChange = event => {
        setInputsValue({
            ...inputsValue,
            [event.target.name]: event.target.value
        });
    }
    const handleSubmission = event => {
        console.log('SUBMITTED CONTACT FORM')
    }
  
    return (
        <form>
            <Grid container>
                <Grid item xs={12} sm={10}>
                <BouncyText />
                </Grid>
            </Grid>
            <Grid container spacing={2}>
                <Grid item xs={12} id="contactFomrField">
                    <TextField
                        fullWidth
                        id={formInput.input}
                        label={formInput.label}
                        name={formInput.input}
                        value={inputsValue[formInput.input]}
                        onChange={handleChange}
                    />
                </Grid>
            </Grid>
            <Grid
                container
                justify="center"
                alignItems="center"
            >
                                <Button
                                    onClick={handleClick}
                                    variant="outlined"
                                    color="primary"
                                >
                                    { formInput.input !== 'message' ? 'Next' : 'Send :)'}
                            </Button>
        </form>
    )
}

handleClick() is a callback(declare in component) pass to child component, so it should be wrapped as useCallback(). otherwise, this callback is redeclare after rerender, so it's reference is different, make child component reconcile.
