If we don’t say “babies, children and young people”, the babies get overlooked.

Babies under one are more likely to be killed by an adult than at any other age.

Babyhood is a critical period of mental and physical development.

Let’s remember to include babies 👍🏻

This came up at Saturday’s LGA event.

Please stop saying Children & Young Ppl unless you really are excluding babies.

If you’re referring to children from birth, please do use the term Babies, Children & Young People.

There’s a good gov report using this term here: www.gov.uk/government/p....

APA PsycNet

A very useful, large meta-analysis confirming the association of parental sensitivity with attachment security. Similar magnitudes of association between maternal and paternal sensitivity. AKA sensitivity in both parents matter in parent-child attachment.
