Description

This specification seeks to procure Video Feedback Intervention for Positive Parenting and
Sensitive Discipline (VIPP-SD) training to be delivered to suitable practitioners working in
specialist perinatal mental health services and maternal mental health services across all
seven regions in England.
The VIPP-SD intervention can be implemented by all professionals working with caregivers
of young children. Professionals include special needs educationalists, psychologists, social
psychiatric nurses, social workers, social therapists, pedagogical staff, employees of infant
welfare centres, child psychiatrists, behavioural scientists and trainees in similar or related
fields.
HEE aims to increase the number of trained practitioners in VIPP-SD in England that are able
to offer the intervention to parents and carers of babies with or at risk of relationship
difficulties.
VIPP-SD is recommended in the NICE guideline for Children's attachment (November
2015). The effectiveness of the VIPP-SD on sensitive caregiving has been demonstrated
through a series of randomized controlled trials.
