Experiences and exposures during this period can have long-term effects on an individual\u2019s health. Therefore, we aim to develop a program for new parents in the Indian context to help them understand their developing infant\u2019s needs and provide the best possible care grounded in traditional practices to ensure healthy developmental outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The program was developed using the exploratory\u2013confirmatory framework grounded in qualitative methods\u2014(a) collection of empiric evidence base by conducting a thorough literature review, (b) tacit experience, and (c) focus group discussions with relevant stakeholders. Picture-based content (one picture per day for two years) was created, and the program was expert-validated. A web-based application was developed to make it available to parents, and the program was translated into three regional languages to improve its reach. A telephonic user feedback survey was carried out, and descriptive statistics were used to present the findings from the survey.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>DOLPHIN stands for \u201cDeveloping Opportunities of Learning for Parents to Help Infant Nurture.\u201d Over 600 parents accessed the program.
