It is a widely known fact that young children who live in families dealing with parental loss, exposure to trauma, substance abuse, addiction, or mental illness are at high risk of developing mental health issues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health (IECMH) indicates that \u201cthe developing capacity of the child from birth to five years old to form close and secure adult and peer relationships; experience, manage and express a full range of emotions; and explore the environment and learn-all in the context of family, community, and culture.\u201d<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why is this Important?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Emotional health of infants and young children is an essential ingredient or a happy and healthy future for all children. During the early childhood years (0-5 years), there are many ways to promote emotional health, to prevent emotional disturbances, and to treat mental health problems before they become severe later in life. Early experience More than one million new neural connections develop every second in the first years of a baby\u2019s life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The relationships at home and the experiences that babies have right from their birth, affect them a lot. They literally shape the architecture of the children\u2019s brain by creating a foundation on which all their future development and learning depends. Parents and caregivers who engage with their infants and toddlers in responsive, consistent, nurturing ways promote strong emotional health \u2014 also referred to as infant and early childhood mental health. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As babies mature, their emotional health supports growth and wellbeing in other essential areas including physical development and health,\u00a0cognitive skills, language and literacy,\u00a0social skills\u00a0and even their approach to learning and readiness for school. When emotional health is compromised, development across these other areas is impacted leaving children vulnerable and susceptible to poor health, poor educational performance, compromised learning and immature adaptive skills.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"550\" height=\"397\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mywellnesshub.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/A-child-in-his-early-years-1.jpeg\" alt=\"A cute baby\" class=\"wp-image-4077\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A cute baby<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Behaviors That Warrant Concern<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is the list of behaviors that are found in children, facing mental health issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Infants and Toddlers (birth to three years old)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Chronic eating or sleeping difficulties<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Inconsolable \u201cfussiness\u201d or irritability<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Incessant crying that cannot be consoled<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Extremely upset when left with another adult<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Inability to adapt to new situations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Easily startled or alarmed by routine events<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Inability to establish relationships with other children or adults<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hitting, biting, and pushing of other children, excessively<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Displaying withdrawn behavior<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Flat or No display of affection or emotion<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pre-schoolers (three to five years old)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The below are the symptoms found in toddlers of 3-5yrs of age.

When an infant or young child\u2019s emotional health deteriorates, they can, and do, experience mental health problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If these symptoms are unidentified or left untreated, IECMH disorders can have detrimental effects on every aspect of a child\u2019s development i.e., physical, cognitive, communication, sensory, emotional, social, and motor skills and the child\u2019s ability to succeed in life. This hampers the overall development of the child. However, when mental health concerns are identified early, there are services that can redirect the course and place children who are at risk on a path for healthy development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An early childhood mental health consultation system would involve a consultant with mental health expertise such as a child psychologist or child psychiatrist working collaboratively with programs such as preschools and day care centers, their staff, and families to improve their ability to identify and prevent\u00a0mental health issues among children in their care. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is of critical importance for our children today. In case, you observe any such problems in your child, please make sure you are aware about the psychological health of your child.
