Did COVID-19 Affect Early Child Development?

from Parents as Teachers

Masks.  Social distancing.  School closures.  COVID was a stressful and confusing time for all, but did the pandemic leave long lasting effects on the development of children who were living through it?  Dr. Dani Dumitriu, a pediatrician, neuroscientist, pediatric environmental health scientist, and Associate Professor of Pediatrics at Columbia University, joins us to talk about the latest research on how COVID affected children and families from a developmental and relational health perspective, and what we've learned about how to mitigate the effects of a similar upheaval on children in the future.
