Hello! I am looking for parents expecting in the next 3 months or have a new born less than 4 weeks, who might be interested in participating in an infant observation. My name is Clara and I am studying a masters course in Psychotherapy and Human Development with Birkbeck University. A central part of my course is to observe an infant in their home environment from birth. The aim is for me to learn, through close attention and quiet observation, how babies develop and begin to form relationships. This will provide the foundation for my future goal of becoming a child psychotherapist. Observations would be for one hour a week at a mutually agreed time to suit you. This would last for 2 years, excluding holidays and can include breaks if needed. Mothers who have taken part in previous observations have found this to be an enriching and rewarding experience, which encouraged them to notice details and developing abilities in their baby. Weekly visits will be unobtrusive and can provide a feeling of structure, containment and a friendly face. You can receive written feedback at the end of the observation. I am local to the area so can be flexible to suit your needs and routine. If this is something you are interested in helping with, or think someone you know might be, then I would be more than happy to talk it through. I have a current DBS and can provide a letter from my university with further details. You can reach me at [email protected], or via this thread. Thank you for your time :-)

Hi, my name is Clara and I am a local resident. I am looking for a parent to be or family who are expecting a baby soon and might be interested in participating in an Infant Observation study. I am an MSc student at Birkbeck University and the British Psychotherapy Foundation, studying Child Development. My course includes an Infant Observation module which requires me to make weekly observations of a baby at home over a period of 15-20 months. The purpose is to observe how an infant develops in the earliest months of life. I have attached a letter from my university which contains more information. I have a current DBS. I would be really happy to talk further, answer questions or give information. If you are interested in finding out more please message me via this thread. Thank you, Clara
