We are calling on all father’s to join us in Embracing Fatherhood and to learn about “The Basics.”
“The Basics” are five evidence-based parenting and caregiving principles that encompass much of what experts find is important for children from birth to age three. Every child from every background can benefit from routinely experiencing the Basics learning experiences. Therefore, the Boston Basics Campaign is working through a broad range of institutions to ensure that every parent and caregiver is fully supported by family and friends to use the Basics practices in everyday life.
Hosted by Christopher Marroquin, Every Child Ready Parent Champion and Walter Camargo Ramirez, Families First Fellow.

Hacemos un llamado a todos los padres para que se unan a nosotros en Abrazar la paternidad y aprendan sobre “The Basics.”
“The Basics” son cinco principios de crianza y cuidado basados en evidencia científica. Ellos abarcan lo que los expertos encuentran esencial para el desarrollo de infantes desde el nacimiento hasta los tres años. Todos los niños, de todos los orígenes, pueden beneficiar de las experiencias e aprendizajes que les rinde Los Boston Basics. Por lo tanto, la Iniciativa Los Boston Basics está trabajando a través de una amplia gama de instituciones para asegurar que todos los padres y cuidadores sean totalmente apoyados por su familia e amigos para utilizar The Boston Basics en la vida cotidiana.
