My Baby's Brain Spring 2025 Strand B - Targeted Services Workforce

My Baby’s Brain Targeted (Strand B): 1-day virtual training for professionals

About:My Baby’s Brain introduces practitioners, who work with children aged 0-3 years old, to the key principals of neuroscience and how they can help parents, children and babies form strong attachments that will encourage healthy development.
The strand B learning journey is for any practitioners delivering targeted services to children and families. This includes Family Safeguarding and Specialist Services, Family Centre practitioners, specialist midwives and some health visitors.
The learning journey has been redesigned and includes:
• The importance of attachment relationships and how early childhood adversity can lead to developmental trauma, impacting on the way babies and children think, feel, and behave.
• An introduction to the Five to Thrive as a model for promoting secure attachment relationships and participants will reflect on the plasticity of the brain and the way the network around vulnerable families can support the most vulnerable parents.
• This training will also focus on trauma and its impact and the implications of trauma informed practice.
• Practitioners will recognise their own vulnerability working alongside traumatised individuals, providing opportunities for reflection.

When:
- Wednesday 29th January 2025 from 09:30-15:00
- Tuesday 4th March 2025 from 09:30-15:00

Where: The training will be delivered virtually by KCA via the Zoom platform.
