London, United Kingdom Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Welcome to our Brent, Harrow and Hillingdon Under 5s team.

Following the successful establishment of Kensington, Chelsea & Westminster Under 5s Service in 2017, CNWL is expanding this model of high-quality brief early intervention to the diverse and thriving communities of the outer boroughs.

We are recruiting three clinical nurse specialists, health visitors, art therapists or play therapists (or equivalent) with post-qualifying specialisation in infant mental health.

These posts are for professionals focused on innovative ways of working with Under 5s and the benefits of brief early intervention. The post holders will be part of a Multi-Disciplinary Team undertaking clinical functions in line with their clinical expertise to implement the service, under the guidance of the two Band 8C Child Psychotherapists leading the project.

The role involves a creative and passionate approach to service development, and offers the opportunity of being part of a pioneering initiative. We are looking for clinicians with sound understanding of infant mental health, and who are open to growing and developing in this field. As this is a brand-new service, we are looking forward to growing and developing together with you.

The service aims to provide an accessible, destigmatising, culturally sensitive infant/young child mental health perspective through:

- consultation to parents and professionals
- specialist assessment
- 6 session brief work with Under 5s and their families, using evidence-based treatment
- interagency partnership working
- teaching and training in infant mental health and early attachment.

If you are interested and would like more information, please contact:
