Take Two Berry Street – Trauma Responsive Infant Work

Online

Overview

Infants exposed to violence and other traumatic events, including significant neglect, are most vulnerable to profound, enduring impacts of these experiences, unless interventions occur to remediate these impacts as early as possible. This workshop will support practitioners working with vulnerable infants (0-5 years) and their caregivers, to:

• define the concept of Infant Mental Health and learn the key Take Two principles for working with vulnerable infants
• understand the 5 key elements for optimal infant development
• understand the neurobiology of in utero and early infant development; the role of caregiving in forming relational neurobiology; the neurobiology of toxic stress in infancy
• the Take Two framework for infant carer assessment and intervention.

Participants will be provided with a range of tools and resources to support their work with infants and caregivers.
