Summary

Studies show that infants and toddlers in thriving relationships feel safe, protected, appreciated, and loved. When an infant or toddler establishes a relationship with a sensitive and responsive caregiver, the infant learns whom to trust and turn to when needing support – when the caregiver and the families are connected – infants and toddlers soar!
