I’m a brazilian psychologist and Infant Developmental Movement Educator
(IDME™) certified by the School for Body Mind Centering, USA.
I promote health and wellness in my work with babies, their parents and
educators.

Through aware observation and non-invasive, playful interaction, I follow the
rhythm of each individual child and facilitate their natural movement
exploration and growth.
Through listening and sharing, I embrace parents during their challenging
journey, and support them on finding nurturing ways to move through any
difficulty they might encounter on the way.

My main interest is to offer ways to carefully play and relate with babies
that enhance their sense of comfort, ease and well being that, as they grow, it
will allow them a full range of movement and learning potential to emerge, as
well as create the ground for a self centered, well balanced and autonomous
human being.

Besides 1-2-1 sessions I organize baby group meetings where parents leave
with:
. Tips to help babies' digestion and sleep
. Methods for increased enjoyment of tummy time
. Useful information about crawling and how to support it
. New understanding of how and when walking begins
. Help for communication and language development
. More support and confidence for parenting and community connections

I actually collaborate with the following associations: Associazione
Alchemia in Monteverde, Rome; CAV and Amica in Viterbo, and Centro Mandala in
Orvieto.
