About the NDC or Possums programs: helping parents and babies get in sync

Dear Possums parent,

Thank you for your commitment to deepening your understanding of the Possums or NDC programs, and to having more knowledge so that you are better able to take care of your own needs and to support other parents around you, in your networks.

I hope you enjoy making your way through these videos, which recorded in two days of Possums parent peer support upskilling.

  • Day 1 (myself) discusses the Possums programs for breastfeeding, feeds, sleep, and baby cry-fuss problems.

  • Day 2 (Anya Snyda, perinatal mental health practitioner) discusses how to take care of our own and others' mental and emotional wellbeing in the perinatal period, with a focus on strategies from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, self-compassion, and the Possums programs.

You can find the first day run together in a single video here if you'd prefer to listen to it as one long 'podcast'.

Kind regards

Dr...
