Parenting for Child Development
Why Parenting?
A critical period is a restricted time window in the life of an individual during which specific events must occur to ensure normal development. Being a parent, caregiver, teacher, child life professional (for example, day care staff, health care professional, family, and social welfare staff) we need to know that the windows of opportunity are only effective when we are providing our child/ren a nurturing care and an effective environmental stimulus which the child can interact with.
