Welcome to Cardiff Babylab!  

​

We are a research group based in the Cardiff University Centre for Human Developmental Science (CUCHDS) in the School of Psychology, Cardiff University, UK.  Our research explores how attentional and motor skills in young children affect learning in everyday settings, such as play between parent and child. This is important to understand, because children with various neurodevelopmental conditions (including children with genetic syndromes such as Down syndrome and Williams syndrome) often present with attentional and motor difficulties early in development. We hope our research will inform future interventions for children with neurodevelopmental conditions and will help parents and professionals better support children’s learning.
