Coaching Parents?
Want to improve the lives of your patients? Achieve better results? Help parents create daily routines and a healing home environment? Here are a few ways you can help!
As a Developmental Specialist and Infant Mental Health Endorsed Family Coach working in Early Intervention, infant massage has played a significant role in addressing my pediatric therapy goals. It has particularly been useful when supporting caregivers with attachment and bonding with their babies. Also, as part of my Infant Mental Health background, I educate families on the importance of social-emotional development. Infant massage promotes the regulation of behavioral states and increases engagement/attention to interactions. I thank Pediatric Theratools for gifting me this skill for my service with children and their families!
I wish I had this course earlier on in my career
I most enjoyed frequent transitions between lecture and lab.
I am a better therapist because of this course!
Gave me tools that I will be able to use immediately.
I would highly recommend this course to anyone in a pediatric setting!!!
We are excited to incorporate this into our early intervention sessions!
Valuable information and resources to use when coaching parents.
You were such a pleasant, positive, and relatable instructor.
If you are a lone ranger in any space, (NICU, OP, home health) this course is for you!
Thank you for traveling to Pittsburgh to certify some of our staff in Infant Massage!
I love how Laura teaches. The pace and tempo are wonderful!
