 HUG Your Baby's Mission
HUG Your Baby believes that parents want to be good moms and dads! We also know that caring and confident parents raise capable and happy children. Based on child development and medical literature, HUG Your Baby's trainings and resources help parents (and the professionals who care for them) understand a baby's body language in order to prevent and solve problems around eating, sleeping, crying, and parent-child interaction and bonding.
What research was used to develop The HUG?
 The HUG is based on the medical and child development literature of Drs. T. B. Brazelton, M. & P. Klaus, M. Lamb, M. & H. Papousek, B. Howard, R. Sturner and others. This research and Ms. Tedder’s materials have been presented at national and international conferences and published in JOGNN, MCN, and Journal of Perinatal Education. Formal clinical evaluation of The HUG is now in progress.
