My Baby's First Teacher is an intervention designed specifically for parents with infants staying in emergency homeless shelters. Infants are overrepresented in shelter populations and face considerable risk to their development, including mental health. We utilized a randomized controlled design across three family shelters to evaluate the program's effectiveness with 24 dyads assigned to the intervention compared to 21 dyads in care‐as‐usual. Dyads were randomized by round at each site to account for shelter effects. We used path analysis to illustrate change over time and in relation to intervention assignment.

My Baby's First Teacher 是一项专门为婴儿住在紧急无家可归者收容所的父母设计的干预措施。婴儿在避难所人口中所占比例过高，他们的发展面临着相当大的风险，包括心理健康。我们在三个家庭收容所中使用随机对照设计来评估该计划的有效性，其中 24 对被分配到干预措施，而 21 对被分配到照常护理中。Dyads 在每个地点按回合随机分配，以说明避难所效应。我们使用路径分析来说明随时间的变化以及与干预分配的关系。
