    This study analyses the feasibility and effectiveness of BabyMICARE, a manualised intervention programme aimed at improving the interactions between caregivers and infants and toddlers with Down syndrome. The programme’s goal is to enhance caregivers’ sensitivity and reduce directivity during early interactions, particularly during play and daily routines. A pre-test and post-test design was used with 40 dyads of infants with Down syndrome and their caregivers, who were divided into a control group (n = 20) and an intervention group (n = 20), based on baseline scores in key interaction subscales. Sessions were conducted over 10 weeks by trained psychologists. Parent-infant interaction was assessed using the MACI coding system, which measures aspects such as sensitive responsiveness, directivity and the level of reciprocity between the parent and the child. The programme showed high feasibility, with a 100% attendance rate but some rescheduling. Caregivers evaluated it positively. The intervention group demonstrated significant improvements in five of eight MACI scales, particularly in sensitive responsiveness and nondirectiveness, while no changes were observed in the control group. The results suggest that BabyMICARE is a feasible and effective intervention for promoting more responsive, less directive interactions, which may be crucial in fostering children’s development.

    <jats:p>Los recién nacidos prematuros moderados son fisiológicamente inmaduros, su cerebro tiene que madurar y adaptarse al entorno extrauterino, lo que puede afectar su desarrollo neurológico. La interacción con sus cuidadores es crucial para su desarrollo, no obstante, estos pueden evidenciar problemáticas de salud mental como sintomatología depresiva y estrés parental. Objetivo: evaluar cómo la sintomatología depresiva y la percepción del estrés de las madres de bebés prematuros moderados durante la hospitalización puede afectar la interacción de la díada. Pacientes y Método: participaron 85 díadas. Durante la segunda y tercera semana de hospitalización, las madres completaron un cuestionario sociodemográfico, la escala de estrés parental y la Edinburgh postnatal depression scale (EPDS). La interacción madre-hijo fue evaluada y codificada con la Escala de Observación del Vínculo Madre-Bebé Hospitalizados. Resultados: las madres de bebés prematuros moderados hospitalizados en una unidad de neonatología pueden presentar una importante sintomatología depresiva y ésta se correlaciona con el estrés experimentado por la madre. El estrés parental y el ser pequeño para la edad gestacional evidenciaron una asociación negativa con las interacciones de las diadas. Conclusiones: El tener un bebé prematuro moderado puede impactar la salud mental de las madres y esto a su vez se relaciona con las interacciones que tienen con sus hijos/as. Del mismo modo se detectaron variables relacionadas con los bebés que también pueden disminuir las interacciones y contacto entre la diada.</jats:p>
