Packed with practical strategies - based on research and the
author's continuing field work - the second edition of this
guidebook shows therapists, early interventionists, social workers,
educators, nurses, and other home visitors how to: build trust,
communicate respect, and maintain boundaries with families; make
home visits successful by developing specific communication and
interpersonal skills; understand the stages of typical child
development - and use that knowledge to help families promote the
child's sense of self, provide guidance and discipline, develop
communication and language, promote learning through play, and
more; and, gain fresh perspective, create a support network, and
learn new strategies through professional development
opportunities.Throughout the book, readers follow two home visitors
into the homes of diverse families - sharing their triumphs and
challenges and learning lessons to use in their own daily work. The
mix of personal stories, research, and strategies make this
hands-on guide a must-have for any home visitor.
