Coaching and Learning for Caregivers of Infants with Cerebral Palsy

This study, called "Coaching, Learning, Empowerment in Cerebral Palsy," is for caregivers of infants aged 3 to 15 months who have been diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy (CP) or are at high risk for it. It's a 6-week program designed to increase your knowledge, comfort, and confidence in supporting your infant. You'll participate in a "bootcamp" led by a team of specialists, including a physical therapist and occupational therapist. The program involves demonstrations, guided practice, and home exercises to help you understand CP basics and strengthen your interactions with your baby. The main goal is to see how much your knowledge, comfort, and confidence improve over these 6 weeks. The study plans to enroll 32 participants.
