This resource from F1001D members @NSPCC is a brilliant explanation of how early trauma affects child brain development and why #InfantMentalHealth is something we need to pay attention to. #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek https://t.co/x1SstdjZ2e

@Alison_Morton2 @iHealthVisiting Fabulous news Alison! Congratulations on your new Executive post ! Great to have you leading the inspiring IHVteam.@iHealthVisiting @Alison_Morton2

These graphs provide a stark reminder of why babies need health visitors. The rate of non-accidental injuries in babies & young children is unacceptable- we must do better to protect them & support their families through early intervention. Sadly for these babies it is too late😢

I’ve signed the @NSPCC petition urging UK governments to provide better mental health support for families and their babies. It’s crucial no parent or baby is left behind during the pandemic and beyond. Join me to make sure every family has a #FairStart: https://t.co/1XQnSVqmRf

A report from @CentreforMH & @MMHAlliance today shows that mothers have faced increased risks to their mental health as a result of the pandemic. This is further evidence of the pervasive impact of the pandemic on babies & their families: https://t.co/Sy4HWFaRKA #MaternalPandemic

Every time you interact with your baby and they respond you’re helping their language and communication skills and their physical development too. 👶🧑‍🍼👩‍🍼🧠

We were disappointed that today's budget said nothing about the support babies & families need to recover from the pandemic & to thrive. Local budgets are squeezed and need is increasing. Without investment babies will miss out on the care they need to get the best start in life.

Survey published by @forbabyssake 40% of parents who experienced domestic abuse said it occurred during pregnancy & before babies reach age 2. DVA causes harm to babies & young children who are often invisible to services- another reason to strengthen universal health visiting

This is fabulous - thank you so much to all the @MothershipWrite who shared their experiences of having a baby #borninlockdown - the highs and the lows, joy and sadness, building relationships & relentless loneliness. Congratulations to all of you- much to learn from your stories

[First 1001 Days @first1001days]

This is one of the findings from our #WorkingforBabies report. Poverty can be one of these additional “risk factors” which is why we are joining @EndChildPoverty's call for Government to put #ChildrenAtTheHeart of the next budget. Join the campaign here https://t.co/iKHVKZLK6D

[AM Gbadebo @AMGbadebo]

@first1001days @homestartuk @LittleVillageHQ This is why It's so important that we offer parents the support they need to allow them to be the best parent they can be during this period of a child's life. The more attention & love a child receives, the better.

#HomeStart #BracknellForestFamilies #First1001Days #Budget2021

[First 1001 Days @first1001days]

Analysis by @LittleVillageHQ shows that households with a child under 3 face the highest risk of poverty. Poverty is one factor that makes it harder for parents to offer the responsive care babies need. We can't afford a #BabyBlindsopt in the next #Budget. https://t.co/MNMJAGD40t
