[Psyperinatal mobile teams: News and prospects]. / Équipes mobiles psypérinatales : actualités et perspectives.

Perinatal psychiatry is now defined in the French Public Health Code as joint parent-baby care. It focuses on parent-baby interactions, the baby's development and the parents' psychological health. "Mobile teams" for joint (parent-baby) care, the very first of which date back to the 1990s, have been developed modestly thanks to the call for perinatal psychiatry projects in 2021 and those for child and adolescent psychiatry since 2019. These mobile units complement full-time outpatient and inpatient joint care units.

[The place of gentleness in joint perinatal psychiatric care]. / Place de la douceur dans les soins conjoints de psychiatrie périnatale.

The complexity and specificity of joint care in perinatal psychiatry call for a rethinking of gentleness. Allowing oneself to make it the object of reflection in its own right means summoning up an essential dimension of welcoming, carrying and meeting the other, which are at the heart of support. Articulating adversity and fragility, creativity and destructiveness, gentleness is a quality, a texture on which a care team can rely from both a clinical and an institutional point of view.
