NBO Australia at The Women's is the official training centre in Australia and New Zealand for the NBO system developed by the Brazelton Institute, Boston (MA, USA).
We have developed this workshop specifically for our shared care GPs. This workshop will teach you how to use the NBO (Newborn Behavioural Observations) in your work with new parents. The NBO is a simple but effective clinical tool GPs can use to support very early parent-infant relationships in the context of a busy practice. We have developed this workshop to best meet your general practice training needs and, for attending this pilot workshop in December, you will receive a complimentary copy of the recommended book "Understanding Newborn Behaviour and Early Relationships: The Newborn Behavioural Observations (NBO) System Handbook by Kevin Nugent et al, published by Brookes, Baltimore". "I thoroughly enjoyed the course and think it is great concept to incorporate into a general practice setting. I have successfully incorporated elements of the NBO into the vast majority of my 6 week neonatal checks and the mothers have seemed universally enthusiastic about the concepts. In all cases I have felt an enhanced ability to model connection with the newborn, and my sense is that this has been viewed as both a helpful and novel approach." Felicity Dent, GENERAL PRACTITIONER, MELBOURNE Workshop details The cost of the December workshop will be $440 and the number of attendees will be capped at 35. Attendees will receive a complimentary copy of the recommended book: "Understanding Newborn Behaviour and Early Relationships: The Newborn Behavioural Observations (NBO) System Handbook by Kevin Nugent et al, published by Brookes, Baltimore".
