Building Babies Brains FREE workshops
The Building Babies Brain course aims to support you to increase your knowledge of baby brain development, bonding and resilience and to be confident in ‘Passing’ this information on to parents/ carers and communities.
Who is it for?
This approach is for anyone who support carers or babies and young children in their community. We have toddler group volunteers, early years practitioners, foster carers, peer supporter volunteers, homestart volunteers, community builders, pharmacy staff, library staff, franchise staff, childminders, family support workers, perinatal mental health staff etc.
Why me?
- We know how much you already do in your community to support carers and their babies and toddlers to flourish
- You’re such an important part of the community and we’d like to give something back to you by way of inviting you to join us at our FREE Building Babies’ Brain workshops where we help support you to grow your knowledge and confidence in ‘passing on’ messages to parents, carers and communities about baby brain development, bonding and resilience
- Our community focused approach, led by Action for Children, aims to convey to parents, carers and families, key messages about baby brain development using trusted messengers (YOU!)
