Child First Works: A Family’s Journey with Markela

A Family’s Honest, Hopeful Look at Child First In this 4-minute story, one family opens up about how Child First helped them build safety, connection, and resilience at home. Guided by Markela Batts, Child First Supervisor at Family Solutions, this video shows how trauma-informed, relationship-based care can make a lasting difference for children (prenatal through age six) and their caregivers.

Child First is a national, evidence-based, two-generation model that works with families who have young children that are experiencing adversity. We provide home-based mental health visiting services, along with care coordination, to meet your family’s needs.

Scientific research demonstrates that we can make a difference if we:

Work to connect families to needed community-based services to decrease stress, and build strong, loving, caregiver-child relationships that protect and heal the brain from trauma and stress.

Our goal is a young brain focused on learning rather than a brain focused on survival.
