PYRAMID MODEL FOR INFANT AND TODDLER CLASSROOMS

The Pyramid Model promotes the social, emotional, and behavioral development of young children. The emphasis of this evidence-based framework is to support all children at the universal level, so that only a very small percentage of children will need intensive intervention. The guiding principles of this model include promoting skill building with enough intensity to affect change, implementing strategies in the context of naturally occurring routines and environments, and modifying strategies so they are responsive to the cultural and linguistic diversity of families and children.

This class is taught by Jackie Shipley and Anastasia Topping.

This course has not only taught me how to be a home visitor, but it has also given me tools to have healthy relationships with my family and friends. So much of the content has made me reflect on my own resilience and mental health and I believe it has made me a better version of myself.
