In the first years of life, our brains grow at lightning speed — building over one million new connections every second. Those connections aren’t just shaped by time, they're shaped by love and care from people around us. youtube.com/watch?v=j2Daer…

“It’s not just what we do, but how we do it — with parents.” 🤝 In this video, a therapist shares how the Ei SMART baby course deepened her understanding of co-production & true partnership with families. #EiSMART #CoProduction #EarlyIntervention #TherapistsAndParents

This August, Ei SMART is focusing on early communication and it all begins with your face! Forget the gadgets your baby’s richest learning comes through connection with you. Explore more practical tips in our leaflet: Top Tips to Support Your Baby’s Communication Development.

We love these moments 💛 At our Ei SMART Baby Course, a mum chats playfully with her baby after a session—showing how connection, communication & joy lay the foundation for learning. These small moments matter. Relationships are everything. #BuildingBabiesBrains #ParentPower

Today is #InternationalNeonatalNursesDay. My mind is always blown by the complexity of the role of a #neonatal nurse. The #human and #clinical skills needed in balance. #FICare nursing means enabling a #family to become a unit, even in the face of #trauma. What a role to play!

Celebrating Our Heroes Today we honour the dedication, skill, and compassion of neonatal nurses. They are innovators, advocates, and guardians of our most vulnerable patients. From the first breath to a lifetime of possibilities, thank you, Neonatal Nurses from the Y&H NODN
