Groups for parents, babies and toddlers, spanning the 1001 critical
days from late pregnancy up to age two, are an effective way of
supporting expectant and new parents by helping them to become more
attuned, sensitive and empathic towards their child. Contributors
bring together a range of theoretical perspectives to show
different ways to facilitate groups that combine mindfulness and
psychological insight to promote bonding, attunement and
mind-mindedness, and to prevent abuse and neglect. Case examples
show a range of techniques that can be used, including baby
massage, movement therapy, Video Interaction Guidance, Watch Wait
Wonder and psychotherapeutic interventions. Examples include an
in-patient mother-baby unit, community and health centres in the
UK, to international examples in Greece, Kenya and New Zealand.
Chapters illustrate practical and clinical aspects of running
groups, the associated challenges, and highlights the importance of
professional collaboration in a benign environment. Weaving the
Cradle is full of ideas and insights for those already running
groups, as well as for those considering it, across health, social
care and education settings.
