Ha, great point, Michelle. The real world of EI doesn’t always flow as smoothly as in the scenarios you read about but with persistence, I hope you’ll see some of the same benefits of connecting to prior knowledge with the families you support.

Example 2-With Stefan asking the mom about what she was taught in NICU, allowed the mom to recall the new skill, using her prior knowledge with a little encouragement. He supported her by asking What was tried, show me how, what is the problem to build that relationship between parent/provider and parent/child vs just provider/child with mom watch. HE worked at building that confidence in parent and the starting the “coach relationship”. They are working on that practicing skills into a routine.
2. Combo of both with more towards example 2. Learn by asking more questions vs always jumping to the hands on part. Model and practice more. Working on the partnership and making it flow as nicely as it sounds while reading the examples.
