Infant Mental Health

The Scottish Government are committed to supporting the development of Infant Mental Health provision across Scotland.

---

We have commenced an engagement process, which will include the formation of a Multi Agency Steering Group comprised of key stakeholders in order to collaboratively develop the service.

---

The Infant Mental Health Service will provide specialist input for families with children aged 0-3, who require support with early relationships. It will also work alongside health and social care colleagues, early years education and third sector agencies to promote and support parent-infant relationships.

The service is at the very early stages of development, and updates will be provided when available.
