"The ‘Make the Connection’ program is based on seven pillars of attachment for parents and caregivers to acquire strategies and engage in activities to help form a secure bond with their baby. It’s designed to increase knowledge of how attachment-based parenting will improve outcomes for their infant."

Approximately 15% of babies born in Canada are anticipated to develop a disorganized attachment to their caregiver. The parent-infant relationship is crucial for optimal development into childhood and adolescent. For many parents, isolation, social support, or existing mental health challenges prevent them from fostering a bond within the first year of their infant’s life. In partnership with GreenShield, we are providing parents with access to our Make the Connection program.

Find out from Dr. Nicole Racine why forming strong parent-child relationships are so important to a baby's development and how MTC can help:
