SUMMARY:AIFS and Emerging Minds - How a 'village' approach can support infant and toddler mental health
DESCRIPTION:Presenters: Lyndsay Healy\, Viv Kissane\, Amy Parker and Vicki Mansfield\nPartner: Emerging Minds\nDate & time: Wednesday 3 April 2024\, 1:00 – 2:00PM (AEDT). Find your time zone \nREGISTER HERE \n\n\n\nSupporting infant and child mental health can be both extremely rewarding and challenging for practitioners working with families. \nMany different factors influence infant and toddler mental health\, including their relationships\, their community and the broader social context in which they live. While having limited social supports can contribute to poor mental health in children and their parents or carers\, having a rich social support system\, or a ‘village’\, can promote mental health and wellbeing. \nThis ‘village’ can include family members\, friends and other trusted community members such as educators\, community leaders and healthcare providers. Practitioners can offer families more effective support by understanding their ‘village’ and what might be stopping families from reaching out for emotional or practical support. \nThis webinar will discuss how to work collaboratively with families to engage with their ‘village’ and how this approach can influence infant and toddler mental health. Panellists will explore practice strategies that promote infant and toddler mental health and explore how asking questions about the family’s ‘village’ can help you better understand a family’s needs and strengths. \nThis webinar will help you: \n\nunderstand the influence of infant and toddlers’ ‘village’ on their mental health\nconsider what factors might help or hinder a family’s connection to their infant and toddlers’ ‘village’\nsupport parents to make sense of their infant and toddlers’ behaviours and what might be happening in their child’s inner world\nconsider how collaboration can support the parent-child relationship\, day-to-day caregiving and resilience after adversity.\n\nThis webinar will interest practitioners who work with infants\, toddlers and their families\, such as allied health workers\, child and family health nurses\, perinatal and infant mental health providers\, mental health services\, child and family services and parenting support\, lived experience workforce\, GP’s\, and paediatricians. \nWhile you will begiven a chance to ask questions during the webinar\, we encourage you to send through questions in advance in the registration form. \nThis webinar is co-produced by CFCA and Emerging Minds in a series focusing on children’s mental health. They are working together as part of the Emerging Minds: National Workforce Centre for Child Mental Health\, which is funded by the Australian Government Department of Health and Aged Care under the National Support for Child and Youth Mental Health Program.\n\n\n\nREGISTER HERE
