Parents & Babies (0-12 months) - In the Parents and Babies Program, parents learn how to:

• Help their babies feel loved, safe, and secure.
• Encourage their babies’ physical and language development.
• The parenting group format fosters peer support networks and shared learning. Trained Incredible Years® facilitators use video clips of real-life situations to support the training and stimulate group discussions. Parents practice skills with their babies in the group.
• How to provide nurturing parenting to babies including offering physical, tactile, verbal, and visual stimulation, coping with crying babies, safety proofing one’s house, and understanding the developmental needs of babies.
• Parents will learn about managing issues such as crying babies, feeding and diapering problems, and leaders will take advantage of the babies’ presence in the group to set up practices.
