Infants and Toddlers A Resource Guide for Practitioners

A needed source of practical information, this text includes the input of parents, professionals, agency representatives, and advocates, as they offer an abundance of ideas, information, and experience for those entering the early intervention field. The book addresses areas that are of growing concern to practitioners and clinic personnel, such as infant mental health, serving special populations through understanding customs as they relate to the roles of parents and families, preparing to provide early intervention services, and issues one must consider before accepting the day-care option. It also attempts to address the many family concerns that are often left unanswered as a result of the time-consuming and crisis nature of parenting an infant or toddler with disabilities. The text is an excellent resource that also can be used by individuals to support or develop their own programs.Bender, Michael is the author of 'Infants and Toddlers A Resource Guide for Practitioners' with ISBN 9781879105362 and ISBN 1879105365.
