Understanding Infant Movement, Social
and Cognitive Development
Bay Area Child’Space Practitioners sponsors workshops and also provides trainings for individual facilities i.e. Childcare centers, Early Head Start, Infant Developmental Specialist Agencies, Clinics, and Schools. Participants will learn new techniques for connecting with infants and toddlers, their families and caregivers.
What makes Child’Space workshops unique for participants?
- Experience developmental movements on the floor to help understand what a child is sensing and to improve your kinesthetic sense of yourself and others.
- Observe how children learn to move, problem solve and explore within the context of themselves, their environment and through social interaction.
- Develop clearer communication and connection with the child and parents/caregivers.
- Learn specific hands-on techniques to enhance the development of the nervous system, awareness, and organization of movement for exploration, cognitive development and communication.
