Know the process of normal development to be able to identify where the baby is blocked in development and what is interfering with his or her ability to control posture and movement.
*
Grade your sensory input; as light input used with patience and sensitivity will be more effective.

Understand that the parents are in crisis; the challenge is to help the parents reach a level of acceptance of their baby. Also included in the book is a glossary of terms. Clear line drawings and descriptions help the therapist give the type of sensory motor input consistent with normal development.
