Putting baby in the centre: Bringing the infant and the family voice into the CYP work

Babies are often the forgotten generation when we talk about work with children, young people and families. This all-day webinar places babies and very young children at the heart of our discussion. The speakers will share their experiences of the psychological work that happens with babies and their families from conception to 5 years, talking about the challenges and opportunities this work presents and about the role clinical psychologists can play in supporting the whole system in this crucial developmental period.
