Premature baby and parents. Parents interacting with their premature baby with cocooning techniques taught as part of a programme of care for neonates (newborn babies). They are following recommendations from NIDCAP (Newborn Individualized Developmental Care and Assessment Program). The technique is continued once the child is brought home. This baby is being cared for at the neonatology service of the children's hospital at the CHU (centre hospitalier universitaire) de Toulouse, Toulouse, France.
