This is a website I decided to look through. I am already impress about their mission statement.
Our mission is to promote the health and development of infants and toddlers. We achieve this by translating research and knowledge—specifically information about the kinds of early experiences that help children thrive—into a range of practical tools and resources for use by the adults who influence the lives of young children.
I hate I did not look at this website before. I love their Child's Development chart. Healthy Minds: Nurturing your child's healthy development. This site gave me the much needed information a first time mom needed. It showed me what to expect from my toddler and ways in how to deal with his tantrums and why he will have tramtrums. The information is broken down according to the age of the child. It also give you pointer on how to build upon your child development. I am just so impress with this organization I plan to learn all can from their newsletters. Which I just signed up for.
The issues I have read about so far from this website is maltreatment and the impact of trauma.

Trecy,
ReplyDeleteMaltreatment and the impact of trauma is an interesting subject to discover. Many people do not realize the serious effects trauma can have on a young child.
Trecy, The child development chart is an awesome tool to help first time parents too. I use it at work to help my families understand the development of their child.
