Abstract Programs that are moving toward relationship‐based practice are finding it essential to integrate some form of reflective process into their program practices in order to achieve their goals. Reflective supervision is proposed as a method to support change toward relationship‐based practice with infants and their families. The elements and structure of reflective supervision are described and several examples are given showing the implementation of this approach in two different settings: neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) and community‐based early intervention programs.
