The Brazelton Touchpoints Individual Level Training Program is a two day seminar designed for individual health care, early education, child care, and social service providers who want to incorporate elements of the Brazelton Touchpoints approach into their practice setting.
The Touchpoints approach helps professionals engage around key points in the development of young children. By helping parents identify and expect bursts and regressions in child behavior (the Touchpoints) professionals can reduce parental frustration and self-doubt while fostering parenting skills and the parents enjoyment of their child.
Participants will:
Understand the theories and concepts of the Touchpoints approach, with emphasis on the developmental and relational elements of parent-child-provider relationships, and their practical applications.
Enhance their delivery of care to families by using relationship-building strategies and communication tools based on the Touchpoints approach.
