Abstract
In neonatology and pediatric intensive care units, as in pediatric units, development support care practiced according to the approach of psychologist André Bullinger takes into account sensorimotor and psychological aspects. Considering the quality and quantity of movements, from the antenatal period, allows for individualized and early care. Sensitive periods of sensorimotor development, during which brain plasticity is optimal, are decisive for psychomotor and cognitive development. Observation and evaluation of movements, as well as postural support to enable active motor skills, constitute essential elements of the developmental support provided to vulnerable children of all ages.
