Infant Wellness

The infant wellness program is designed for families who want the opportunity to learn about the various aspects of infant development, bonding and attachment, and strategies to promote health and well being within their family. It is geared toward all families who desire a comprehensive understanding of the latest research and information regarding what to expect from and what to provide their newborn baby. The program is also designed to serve as a screening mechanism for early detection of children with delays in motor skills, language skills and emotional/social development. As such, there is a strong consultation component for families whose infants are considered at risk, whether because the infants themselves were born prematurely, or experienced other gestational or delivery complications, as well as perhaps having an older sibling with difficulties.
