Video Interaction Project
The Video Interaction Project (VIP) aims to use regularly scheduled pediatrician visits for children ages 0–5 to support child development, school readiness, and educational outcomes. VIP sessions focus on increasing responsive parenting, a parenting style where parents learn to observe their child’s behavior, interpret their cues, and act in a way that meets the child’s needs.
Trained VIP coaches meet with the parent and child together either before or after the child’s regularly scheduled pediatric well-child visit (i.e., check-up). During the VIP session, coaches encourage parental behaviors that support children’s social-emotional, cognitive, and language growth. To support children’s social-emotional growth, coaches talk to parents about perspective-taking, responsiveness, engagement in children’s interests, giving positive feedback and affection, and avoiding anger and harsh discipline. To support children’s cognitive and language growth, coaches help parents structure tasks at an appropriate level for the child's abilities, label objects and actions, repeat and expand on what the child says, have back-and-forth conversations, and ask questions.
Each VIP session typically includes three activities: (1) parents receive learning materials, (2) coaches record and review a video of the parent and child, and (3) parents and coaches fill out a written Parent Guide. First, each session begins with the parent and the coach discussing the parent's goals for their child’s social-emotional and cognitive-language development and strategies to meet these goals. During this discussion, the coach provides the parent with developmentally appropriate learning materials (e.g., a toy, book, or both) selected to promote pretend play, verbal engagement, and early literacy. The coach then suggests ways that the parent can use the toy or book at home to engage with their child. Second, after this discussion, the coach records a 3–5-minute video of the parent and child exploring the new toy or book together. Coaches then review the video with the parent to reinforce positive interactions and identify additional opportunities for interaction. Finally, the coach and parent work together to complete a written, visit-specific Parent Guide pamphlet that reinforces lessons learned during the session and includes suggestions for interacting with the child through play, shared reading, and daily routines.
VIP is rated as a promising practice because at least one study achieved a rating of moderate or high on study design and execution and demonstrated a favorable effect on a target outcome.

Target Population
VIP is designed to serve parents and children ages 0–5.
Dosage
VIP sessions are designed to be delivered in conjunction with regularly scheduled pediatric well-child visits. These well-child visits occur every few months during infancy and toddlerhood and then less frequently as children get older.
Sites can choose to implement VIP for children ages 0–3, 3–5, or 0–5 and the number of sessions varies based on the age at which the child starts the program. When delivered from ages 0–3, VIP can include up to 14 sessions. When delivered from ages 3–5, VIP can include up to nine sessions. When delivered from ages 0–5, VIP can include up to 23 sessions. Each session lasts 30–45 minutes.
Location/Delivery Setting
Recommended Locations/Delivery Settings
Coaches typically deliver VIP in pediatric healthcare or community settings. Coaches can also deliver VIP virtually in the home.
Location/Delivery Settings Observed in the Research
- Hospital/Medical Center
Education, Certifications and Training
VIP typically requires that coaches have a bachelor’s degree in a relevant field and knowledge of child development. In some circumstances, coaches may have an associate’s degree with additional background or experience in early childhood development.
The VIP Center of Excellence (COE) delivers required training for coaches. This includes a 3-day start-up training course offered in person or virtually, onsite visits, remote supervision and refresher videoconference seminars. Coaches must also complete any additional training or regulatory requirements specific to the implementing site, such as site-specific training or background checks.
Sites interested in implementing VIP must complete an onboarding process with the VIP COE. This process includes a preliminary site visit, completion of a site implementation worksheet, hiring and training a VIP coach, identifying a VIP Champion who will facilitate local engagement and coordinate with the COE, creating a list of existing local resources for families, and identifying spaces for program delivery that meet program requirements. Programs may implement a pilot phase before launching the program. After launch, sites complete site protocols on a regular basis to monitor program implementation.
