Participants will examine how caregiver well-being\, infant development\, and relationship health influence one another and why a relationship-based lens is essential when supporting caregivers and infants. The training introduces a dyadic lens that expands attention beyond the individual caregiver or infant to include the relationship between them. Participants will explore how perinatal mental health challenges can affect interactions with an infant while also considering the strengths\, connection\, and protective factors within the caregiver-infant relationship.Through discussion and examples\, participants will consider how they can bring the baby into their curiosity\, notice the relationship\, and recognize opportunities to support both the caregiver and the developing relationship. Learning Objectives By the end of this training\, participants will be able to: Define infant mental health and perinatal mental health and describe key concepts within each. Explain how caregiver well-being\, infant development\, and the caregiver-infant relationship influence one another. Describe how a dyadic lens can expand practice by considering the caregiver\, infant\, and relationship together. Trainer: Dr. Christine Hughes\, IMH-E®\; Christine R.
