ZERO TO THREE
ZERO TO THREE is a national nonprofit organization that informs, trains and supports professionals, policymakers and parents in their efforts to improve the lives of infants and toddlers. Neuroscientists have documented that our earliest days, weeks and months of life are a period of unparalleled growth when trillions of brain cell connections are made. Research and clinical experience also demonstrate that health and development are directly influenced by the quality of care and experiences a child has with his parents and other adults. That is why at ZERO TO THREE our mission is to ensure all babies and toddlers have a strong start in life. We know that as babies, the way we are held, talked to and cared for teaches us about who we are and how we are valued. This profoundly shapes who we will become. Early experiences set a course for a lifelong process of discovery about ourselves and the world around us. Simply put, early experiences matter. We encourage you to learn more about very young children, early development and the work of ZERO TO THREE by exploring our site. Explore opportunities at zerotothree.org/careerswww.zerotothree.org

Yeah, so interoception is a really interesting, um, sensory system that we're hearing a lot of about to help with, like, emotional regulation, and Kelly Mahler, it's M-A-H-L-E-R, is, um, driving some of this research, and so she has a lot of free resources and information on her website, um, and it's all research-based.

The Zero to Three website is also a really great one for some sensory activities, especially if you're feeling stuck and want some play activities you can do at home that are free or inexpensive.

And D.I.R. Floortime also started from Stanley Greenspan.
Erin ForwardGUEST
He's the founder of D.I.R. Floortime and he actually founded Zero to Three.
Erin ForwardGUEST
So people think Stanley Greenspan in 1977, I like did all my fact checking too, but he founded Floortime off of his research with development of typically developing children and their social emotional development.
Erin ForwardGUEST
And so it, it happened to be the DIR floor time is really utilized in the autism community and it is, can be, is so effective, but floor time can work with literally anybody.
