Munchee University - Bebe Protocols
The Bebe Protocols gives practitioners, working in the 0-2 years space, the tools and understanding to facilitate optimal outcomes and development. In a world where "normal" development is often far from ideal, these protocols will give you the awareness of which factors indicate if a child's oral development is on track. If we have a thorough understanding of what ideal looks like, we are then able to detect issues and correct them earlier; the earlier we can detect a developmental problem, the more likely we are able to shift the trajectory and get them back on track!
With over 6 hours of video content, including presentations from Dr Mary Bourke, Dr Jenna Davis, Dr Lynda Dean-Duru and Bridget Ingle, along with a Bebe Protocols Manual and workbook - using common language and understanding to allow for easily transferable information across a broad spectrum of professions, the Bebe Protocols are a MUST for any practitioner working in the infant space!
Once you have completed the necessary course components and exam, you are then listed on our practitioner listing page as a “Bebe Certified Myo Munchee Practitioner”. This page is creating referral pathways for the general public with our “Munchee Certified” community, and also connecting our practitioners with one another. This assists with creating localised hubs of like-minded practitioners and therapists, working collaboratively, to achieve the best possible patient outcomes. That’s the #muncheemovement.
You will then also receive a monthly invite to our Certified Advanced sessions, where Dr Mary hosts presentations from experts in their field. Past presenters include Dr Darick Nordstrum, DDS, inventor of the ALF, Sharon Moore, SLP, author of ‘Sleep Wrecked Kids’, Dr Dan Hanson, on Functional Breathing, Dr Charlie Beck, Osteopath, on Biologic Laws and why the Munchee works.
