This article describes an early intervention programme for infants with Down's syndrome (DS) implemented by a registered nurse. The purpose of this programme was to help the families cope with the realities of raising a child with DS and help the infant fulfil his/her maximum potential. Small groups of three-four families with their infants met weekly with the nurse for 2-hour sessions. Each session was divided into two parts: exercises and discussion of issues relating to DS. Implications for nursing practice, education and management are discussed.
