DESCRIPTION:This talk addresses the issues for parents around 
 reading their baby’s signals and cues from birth\,
  which is one of the important components of paren
 tal interactive competence.  Understanding infant 
 cues has been shown to boost maternal self-confide
 nce and increase maternal sensitivity.  Sensitive 
 and contingent interactions between mothers and th
 eir infants have been related to better social and
  cognitive competence and the formation of secure 
 attachment in infants.  The Brazelton Centre’s goa
 l is to promote healthy parent-infant relationship
 s through an understanding of newborn behaviour\, 
  and it runs courses for both practitioners and re
 searchers in the Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Sc
 ale (NBAS) and the Newborn Behavioral Observations
  System (NBO).  They are based on the concept that
  infant behaviour comprises of four organized syst
 ems of behaviour producing a profile of the newbor
 n in the first three months of life.  These system
 s along with the self-regularity abilities of newb
 orns will be described\, as well as current projec
 ts and research studies in the UK using the NBAS.\
