Next week it’s Infant Mental Health Awareness Week. This year’s theme is Attunement.

Attunement is the ability to tune in and connect with others on an emotional level. It is important for everyone, but particularly for babies and their parents or carers. Attuned relationships support both baby and parental wellbeing and help babies get off to the very best start in life

Attuned relationships help babies to feel safe and loved, and help them learn to regulate their emotions, supporting good infant mental health. Everyone can benefit from learning more about attunement and there are lots of resources and tools available to help.

Find out more: https://parentinfantfoundation.org.uk/imhaw/

A infant mental health champion will be available to speak to in your local community. Next week drop into the following hubs to find out more about attunment
