Baby Love

Baby Love is an attachment-based program for parents and caregivers of children from 2 months to 12 months. This program is supported by Dr. J. Wittenberg who designed and developed the Baby Love program at SickKids Hospital. Caregivers will learn about their babies’ minds, learn how to help their babies feel secure, and learn how to help their babies deal with stress. Babies who are secure have better relationships, learn better in school, have better physical and mental health.
