Overview: Hospital-to-Home Systems Change Presents a training focused on Supporting Sleep Post-NICU. Providers frequently name infant sleep as a challenge for families following NICU discharge and an area where additional, relationship-based strategies are needed. This half-day training creates dedicated space to explore this topic in greater depth.
Course Description: This interdisciplinary half-day training will explore the foundations of infant sleep and practical, strengths-based strategies to support families. Grounded in the Neuro-Relational Framework, this session will deepen your understanding of sleep in infancy and how to partner with caregivers in ways that are responsive, respectful, and effective.
Who should Attend: Clinicians, family resource coordinators, and others supporting infants and families in early intervention and community-based settings.
Presenters: Leslie Butterfield, PhD; Sara Circelli, PMH-C, IMH-E; Tiffany Elliott, MS, CCC-SLP, CNT, IBCLC, NTMTC; Mari Mazon, MS, RDN, CD; and Parent Panel to share lived experience.

Interdisciplinary training intended for providers of all disciplines working with infants and families in the NICU to home transition.
Course Description: Hosted by Northwest Center Kids, the Hospital-to-Home™ three day training is an interdisciplinary 3-day training that instructs providers on supporting the specific mental health, feeding, and nutrition care needs of infants and caregivers transitioning from the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) to home. While NICU infants are at high risk for feeding and growth concerns, their caregivers are also at significant risk of experiencing Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADs). Research shows high-risk infants have better outcomes transitioning out of the NICU when they receive quality therapy in the home shortly after discharge. This training helps build the workforce capacity to holistically support infants and families in the hospital-to-home transition.
Who would Benefit from this Training: Early Intervention providers (including OTs, PTs, SLPs, FRCs, TCVI, DHH), home visitors, community mental health providers, WIC, postpartum doulas, lactation consultants, peer counselors and others supporting infants and families!
