Interviews for Intrafamilial violence: Supporting early childhood educators to promote children's wellbeing.

The proposed qualitative research study through interviews, explored early childhood educators’ understandings of intrafamilial violence and its impact on the developing child, and their perceived adequacy of preparation within their initial teacher education courses to support children experiencing intrafamilial violence. Findings informed the content of a teaching resource prototype designed to assist early childhood educators to identify, respond to, and support children who have experienced intrafamilial violence. This prototype was trialed and assessed by a Reference group of educators and experts, to ensure its content and delivery reflects the knowledge and information required to support educators promote the wellbeing of children impacted by intrafamilial violence.
