This 5-week parent-infant group draws on pediatrician Emmi Pikler’s groundbreaking research on infant competence and care and focuses on attachment, attunement, caregiving, and parent support. In a calm and nourishing setting, parents slow down and “tune in” to their infants and themselves — delighting in infants’ natural development. As infants unfold within their caregivers’ consistent, warm, and secure presence, the roots of well-being grow for both infant and caregiver. Parents share experiences with one another and find support in this joyful and challenging time of parenting a new human!

This group is designed for a parent and their infant (most will be ~6-16 weeks in age).
