The Parent-Infant Program provides a setting where parents and children, ages 6 months to 16 months, interact under the guidance of a trained adult. Parents are guided in their observation of their child and in understanding their child’s development. The environment is equipped with activities for the child, or for both the child and the parent to interact with.
The Parent-Infant Program helps the parents develop their Self- Reflective stands towards their own Parenting Process.
