Among the main objectives, the course intends to introduce participants to theoretical knowledge about the emotional health of babies and their development up to three years of age, based on their relationship with each other. Students will learn how to detect early signs of psychological distress in young children, as well as developmental disorders.

The course will also highlight the interdisciplinary practice in early childhood care, favoring dialogue between the various professionals involved, taking into account practices aimed at babies, children up to three years old and their families, and the need for intervention in situations of difficulty in the parent-baby bond, such as prematurity, depression, paternal psychosis, neglect and child abuse.
