class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reflection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the summer of 2019, our family toured secret antelope canyon, a beautiful slot canyon on a Navajo Indian reservation in Page, Arizona.&nbsp; The sun was bright, the sky was blue, and it was hot.&nbsp; We climbed into an open air bus with an English couple, an Italian family, and 2 expert tour guides. After a bumpy ride and a short hike through the desert, we arrived at the canyon entrance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;Beautifully carved sandstone walls stood before us. Entering a narrow passage, I&nbsp; noticed golden beams of sunlight cascading down the rocks like tiny waterfalls. As we walked towards the heart of the canyon, the walls glowed like the hues of a sunset. &nbsp; The ridged layers of sandstone were smooth to the touch. The air was cool.&nbsp; I felt as if I had entered one of nature\u2019s cathedrals, a magnificent and holy place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we walked deeper into the canyon, we spotted a lone grasshopper, an eagle\u2019s nest, and spider webs clinging to a wall.&nbsp; Our guide pulled out his recorder and began to play a traditional Navajo song. The spiritual music rippled through the canyon like a soothing melody.&nbsp; Listening, I paused, looked around, and wondered, \u201cHow have desert rains transformed this canyon over hundreds of years?&nbsp; If I could watch the sun light up this canyon from dawn to dusk, what would I see?&nbsp;&nbsp; If these walls could talk, what stories would they tell?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Seeing this canyon and using the Newborn Behavioral Observation System (NBO) with families and babies, has filled me with a sense of awe, fine tuned my powers of observation, and challenged me to ask new questions about how nature is transformed over time by its environment.<em>&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over the last 10 years, I have had the opportunity to attend, and occasionally organize, wonderful lectures on early child development, early brain development, infant-parent mental health, and on social interactions between babies, young children, and their caretakers.&nbsp; I consider myself blessed to have heard so many incredible speakers, including Dr. Berry Brazelton, Dr. Kevin Nugent, Dr. Jayne Singer,&nbsp; Dr. Ed Tronick,&nbsp; Dr. Claudia Gold, Dr. Alice Carter, Dr. Charles Nelson, Dr. Takao Hensch, Dr. Patricia Kuhl, Dr. Jack Shonkoff, and many others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a speech-language pathologist in early intervention, I have primarily helped families help their 2 year-olds, who have speech delays or complex medical issues, learn to understand language and communicate in ways that their caretakers understand.&nbsp; When I became trained in the NBO, a few months before COVID swept across the country, I had the opportunity to help parents learn more about how to recognize and understand their babies cues, behaviors, and patterns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The knowledge I have developed through attending lectures and trainings, watching videos, reading, and working as a speech-language pathologist in early intervention, has created a rich backdrop for using the NBO professionally with families.&nbsp; Working with the NBO has challenged me to consider different perspectives, and repeatedly ask myself the questions, \u201cWhat are this family\u2019s strengths?&nbsp; How is this baby responding to her environment?&nbsp; How does this baby express herself?&nbsp; How are this baby\u2019s caretakers interpreting her behaviors? Is there anything I can do to inspire micro moments of connection and understanding between this baby and her parents?&nbsp; Are there any resources I could provide or point to that would be helpful in addressing this family\u2019s needs?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Overall, it has been a pleasure to work with families and babies with the NBO in early intervention.&nbsp;&nbsp; I hope that the ideas of those who have made important discoveries about babies, baby-caretaker interactions, and infant-parent mental health, will continue to inspire authors, researchers, teachers, therapists, and parents to collaborate.&nbsp; By working together, we will help future generations of families with young babies, overcome their challenges, and step towards fulfilling their hopes and dreams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile is-vertically-aligned-top\" style=\"grid-template-columns:20% auto\" id=\"yui_3_17_2_1_1748443707653_67\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"479\" height=\"717\" src=\"https:\/\/brazeltoninstitute.childrenshospital.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Picture2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-774 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/brazeltoninstitute.childrenshospital.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Picture2.jpg 479w, https:\/\/brazeltoninstitute.childrenshospital.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Picture2-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/brazeltoninstitute.childrenshospital.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Picture2-124x185.jpg 124w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 479px) 100vw, 479px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sarah Roehrich, MS, CCC-SLP, is a speech-language pathologist who was worked at the Thom Anne Sullivan Early Intervention Center in Lowell, MA for 20 years.&nbsp; Working independently and on multi-disciplinary teams, Sarah has helped families teach their toddlers, with and without special needs to understand language, learn to communicate, and\/or help develop their feeding skills.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;Sarah is the author of 2 blogs entitled \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.wisebrain.org\/bulletin\/volume-14-4\/the-architecture-of-the-brain\">The Architecture of the Brain<\/a>\u201d and \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/eibalance.com\/2013\/05\/03\/kuhl-constructs-how-babies-form-foundations-for-language\/\">Kuhl Constructs: How Babies Form Foundations for Language<\/a>.\u201d&nbsp; Inspired by outstanding lectures in early child development, Sarah has developed an interest in early brain development and social interactions between infants and caretakers.&nbsp; Certified in the Newborn Behavioral Observation System (NBO), Sarah hopes to continue to help parents bond with their infants using the NBO in the future.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reflection by Sarah Roehrich The Sandstone Cathedral by Sarah Roehrich The grandeur of a slot canyon cannot escape the eye<a class=\"excerpt-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/brazeltoninstitute.childrenshospital.org\/es\/nbi-community\/poetry-and-practice\/the-sandstone-cathedral\/\"><b> &#8230;Read More<\/b><\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"parent":87,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-full-width.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-772","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.3 -
