Summary

Premature babies have a high risk of adverse developmental outcomes. Early intervention approaches are applied to reduce these adverse outcomes or support of developmental delay. Early intervention approaches may vary depending on developmental priorities. While some early intervention methods can consider body structured findings such as posture, tonus, muscle power, others may consider coaching family, enrichment of the environment. The explorer baby program is developed based on the trial and error process. The program tries to find an answer to a unique question: "how trial behavior in infants can be increased and which behaviors of the infants should be supported to increase their trial process?" The Explorer baby program tries to increase exploratory motor behaviors to facilitate development. For this aim, the program tries to explain how a baby learns new skills such as rolling, sitting, babbling, playing peek a boo, etc. in all domains of development while the baby lives in their natural environment. This study aims to investigate the effect of the explorer baby early intervention program.
