Interests The RIE® Certified PARENT/INFANT GUIDANCE™ Classes, a research-based approach, offers weekly group support for your family’s well-being and growth during the most crucial first two years of your child’s development. The baby is respected as a competent human being and seen as a partner whose need for security is fulfilled through loving and undivided attention during care. In the small (6 to 8 families) parent/infant group, professional facilitation provides adults with the same respect for their unique learning process that is shown for infants, enabling growth of trust among members as relationships build and parents develop.
