Abstract
Introduction: Early life parent-focused interventions can effectively improve infant and child nutrition and movement (physical activity and sedentary behavior) as well as parents' health behaviors. Scale-up of such interventions to real-world settings is essential for population-wide benefits. When progressing to scale-up, intervention components may be modified to reflect contextual factors and promote feasibility of scale-up. The INFANT program, an efficacious early life nutrition and movement behavioral intervention began as a randomized controlled trial (RCT), was modified after a small-scale translation, and is currently being scaled-up in Victoria, Australia. This study mapped and com..
