IMPORTANCE OF RELATIONSHIPS
“All children grow and thrive in the context of close and dependable relationships that provide love and nurturance, security, and responsive interactions.”
(Center on the Social and Emotional Foundations for Early Learning, 2010).
10
MYTHS
11
“Young children can benefit significantly from secure relationships with multiple caregivers (within or outside the family), while their attachments to their parents remain primary and central.”
12
“The influence of relationships on development lasts for the first five
years of a child’s life.”
13
“Although young children certainly can establish healthy relationships with more than one or two adults, prolonged separations from familiar caregivers and repeated “detaching” and “re-attaching” to people who matter are emotionally distressing and can lead to enduring problems.”

FACTORS IMPACTING PARENT/CHILD RELATIONSHIPS
17
CULTURAL AND LINGUISTIC INFLUENCES ON PARENT-CHILD RELATIONSHIPS
18
We carry in our journey, experiences and beliefs developed and shaped by “messages” and “recordings” from and of our families, friends, and communities.
How we view the world – how we behave, react, interact, etc. are greatly influenced by our culture and language.
Culture and language are inseparable components of any individual and therefore must be taken into consideration simultaneously beginning when the child joins the human
community.
Cultural and Linguistic Influences on Parent-Child Relationships

HOW DOES CULTURE AND LANGUAGE MANIFEST IN OUR WORK WITH CHILDREN AND FAMILIES?

• Time
• Space
• Interaction Style
• Childrearing Practices: feeding, play, toileting, sleeping, independence, etc.

ANY QUESTIONS?
“It is not what the service provider does during the home visit that will make the difference in the child’s development; it is what the family learns during the visits and uses during their activities and routines throughout the week that facilitates the child’s learning and development.”
(McWilliam, 2000) 27

PARENT COACHING STRATEGIES
Parents Interacting With Infants (PIWI)
30
THREE KEY PIWI OUTCOMES
Competence
Confidence Mutual Pleasure
31
PARENT-CHILD INTERACTION: DYADIC STRATEGIES
“Any alterations or additions that the adult consciously uses during adult-child
interactions to facilitate a better match with the baby and to foster his/her
development.”
[PIWI Projects, Children’s Research Center, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign]
32
PARENT-CHILD INTERACTION: TRIADIC STRATEGIES
“…used by the interventionist during the course of parent-child interaction
to expand & build interactions that are pleasurable for both partners and
supportive of children’s development, while also recognizing and strengthening
the natural competence of parents as they interact with their children.”
[PIWI Projects, Children’s Research Center, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign]
33
ESTABLISH DYADIC CONTEXT
Elements of the environment are arranged or rearranged to increase the probability of developmentally matched,
mutually enjoyable parent-child interaction.
34
35
36
AFFIRM PARENT COMPETENCE
Developmentally supportive interactions are warmly recognized and expanded upon as are characteristics of child competence.
37
38
39
FOCUS ATTENTION
Aspects of the interaction are commented upon, expanded, or questioned in order to draw the parent’s attention to
particular competencies or actions in self or child.
40
41
42
43
ANY QUESTIONS?
PROVIDE DEVELOPMENTAL INFORMATION
Information about the child’s developmental agenda is given by verbally labeling or interpreting the child’s social-emotional,
cognitive, language, and motor abilities within the context of play and interaction.
44

MODEL
Dyadic interaction roles are momentarily taken on by the
interventionist.

Key Take-Away Points
61
The influence of positive relationships on development lasts a lifetime.
Factors such as culture, presence of a disability, and military life can impact parent-child relationships.
A key premise of relationship-based practices is the focus on the partnership between parents and providers.
