Brain development depends on many factors. Perhaps the most important is sensory experiences with other people and the world around them.
Babies learn about the world through the loving support of their parents.

If we all understood how an infants brain worked, babies lives would be off to a good start. We need to continue to educate and inspire change #infantmentalhealth #earlyyears

If you work with babies or toddlers or their parents please spread the word about the #WhatAboutUs campaign. We are asking parents to share their baby's missed moments with @rishisunak and ask why under 2's are not included in the COVID catch-up funding 1001days.org.uk/WhatAboutUs

We’re super excited about returning to some #facetoface courses after Easter! Motherwise and #babymassage will bring new mums together for much needed #peersupport and friendship ❤️💕 #tacklingisolation #maternalmentalhealth
Let’s hope our government and future governments make this commitment a reality. The report is very welcome 🙏
The Government’s Start for Life Review is hugely welcome as a commitment to improve health and well-being in the #First1001Days. As the report itself says “it is what happens next that matters” because this vision must become a reality for all families. parentinfantfoundation.org.u…

"The voluntary & community sector is increasingly supporting parents with quite complex needs... some funders have done an amazing job but we have concerns that this might be short-term. We need long-term financial infrastructure." Natalie from @hmpartnership #MaternalPandemic

Naomi Stadlen says that most mothering and love-giving is unconscious, babies “help themselves” ❤️ Are you doing enough? Are you giving enough? Yes you are! @WATCthechildren #goodenoughparenting

Steve Biddulph describes himself as a “non expert” because parents are the experts on their own children ❤️ Important message to all professionals, take care not to undermine parents’ gut instincts #fullyhuman @WATCthechildren @Parents1st
