Kids+ is excited to share that our first article about the Kids+ Parent Infant Program has been published in Frontiers in Pediatrics and can be freely accessed here.

The Kids+ Parent Infant Program was developed by Sarah Foley and Kelly Reynolds during their time at Kids+. The publication is co-authored by Sarah, Kelly, Kids+ Kids+ Research Coordinator Dr Anna Urbanowicz, and Dr Margaret Mayston. The Kids+ Parent Infant Program pioneered community-based development supports for families and their infants in Geelong and the Barwon Region, Victoria.

The article outlines the unique elements of the Kids+ Parent Infant Program, which includes a coordinated transition from hospital to home, and holistic support for infants who require developmental support. The article also includes directions for future program development and research.

Kids+ are delighted to provide an update on an ongoing research project which is funded by the Anthony Costa Foundation, Geelong Community Foundation and Percy Baxter Charitable Trust.
