{"product_id":"getting-to-know-you-claudia-m-gold-9780807786543","title":"Getting to Know You: Lessons in Early Relational Health from Infants and Caregivers","description":"\u003cp\u003eUtilizing narrative storytelling, this user-friendly guide describes the principles of early relational health with direct application to day-to-day work with infants and parents. Practitioners on the front lines often feel great pressure to know \"what to do\" in a wide range of challenging situations. Drawing on both developmental science and extensive clinical experience, Dr. Gold provides evidence that the exact opposite--a stance of not-knowing--helps us find our way into another person's experience, offering the greatest opportunity for connection, growth, and healing. Gold presents a model of \"listening in\" with an intentional suspension of expectations and a willingness to be surprised. The paradigm of listening in functions as a kind of superpower to enhance teacher-student, professional-parent, and parent-infant relationships. This resource will be important reading for a broad variety of practitioners working with infants including early childhood educators, home visitors, pediatricians, doulas, and mental health clinicians, as well as policymakers, parents, and other caregivers. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBook Features: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eSummarizes the key advances in our understanding of brain science, child development, and infant-parent mental health.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEmphasizes lessons from real-life interactions between infants and caregivers as communicated through detailed clinical vignettes.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOffers practitioners a model for listening that is rooted in the concept of cultural humility and the idea that even in sameness there is difference.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Claudia M.
