Training Video - Welcome
Welcome to the Nurturing Training Online Video!
This video is not meant for certification in the Nurturing Parenting Programs

The purpose of the Nurturing Training Online Video is to be a resource to you and your staff in learning how to utilize the assessments and programs published by Family Development Resources, a leader in the prevention and treatment of child abuse and neglect. Start watching the Online Training Video!
The Nurturing Program Training Video shows a two day training on the Nurturing Program that Dr. Bavolek conducted in Cincinnati, Oh. in the fall of 2007. The training will assist viewers in understanding the development, philosophy and key principles of the Nurturing Parenting Programs.
An on-line video training can never take the place of attending a live training. This video is not meant to supplant your involvement in one of our Nurturing Parenting trainings, rather to supplement your training experience. There is a lot that goes on in our trainings and colleagues have written us suggesting that the trainings be extended. As we all know, getting extended time away from work to attend trainings is getting more and more difficult as budgets decrease and caseloads increase.
So, your colleagues at Family Development Resources are providing you with an opportunity to expand your awareness increase your knowledge and renew your commitment to nurturing as a philosophy and a program.
There are several ways we hope this video can be of value to you:
- After attending one of our Nurturing Program Facilitator trainings, review the information on the video to reinforce your knowledge of the philosophy of the Nurturing Parenting.
- Watch the video before the training and come prepared to discuss the concepts presented. Be a step ahead of the others.
- Use the video as a supplement in training new staff at your agency, or staff who couldn’t attend the training.
- Use parts of the video to show parents during one of your sessions. Match the lesson you’re teaching with the relevant clip from the video. It also provides the parents with a “visual” of the author. That’s always fun.
- To assist the dedicated Home Visitors in the Army and Navy’s New Parent Support Programs implementing the Nurturing Parenting Programs in military installations worldwide.
