One unique aspect of DIR/Floortime is that anyone can get certified and trained. Parents and caregivers play an important role in DIR/Floortime because they are responsible for providing a supportive and encouraging environment for their child to explore.
Many parents work with developmental health professionals like occupational therapists, speech therapists, and psychologists who have the DIR/Floortime certification. Therapists and teachers who are certified in DIR/Floortime can help create activities and provide guidance on how to best support your child’s development.
