NHS Blackpool CCG wishes to commission a pilot for a Specialised Parent Infant Relationship Team to support families who are finding it difficult to develop a positive relationship with their unborn baby, their baby or young child.
The pilot will run for two years during which time there will be a focus on the feasibility and acceptability of the service with beneficiaries and referrers/professionals.
The aim of the Parent Infant Relationship Team is to improve the quality of parent-infant interactions. The focus of support required will be the parent-infant relationship. It will be an early intervention service that works to support families who are finding it difficult to develop a positive relationship with their unborn baby, their baby or young child.
The service will improve the outcomes of the infants and young children by: -
⢠promoting good parent infant relationships and early child development
⢠providing early comprehensive assessment to families
⢠providing evidence informed integrated service
⢠advancing the understanding of parent mental health and parent-infant relationship and
⢠to have a clear understanding of what is available and develop effective pathways
⢠providing training and consultancy to frontline practitioners to enhance recognition and appropriate signposting dyads with relationship difficulties in the early years
⢠working with CAMHS as part of a hybrid model to ensure children aged 2-5 and their families can access support where there are difficulties in the nurturing relationship.
