Résumé
The aim of this study was to describe Child Health Service (CHS) nurses' experiences with conducting individual parental conversations (IPCs) with non-birthing parents. CHS nurses in Sweden mainly focus on monitoring a child's physical and mental development and the mothers' health in order to support their parenthood. The assignment of the CHS includes identifying dysfunctional social relationships in a family and strengthening responsive parenting. An imbalance arises within the family when someone in the family suffers from illness, which could have a negative effect on the whole family's health and well-being. An inductive, descriptive qualitative study design was used to describe and to gain an understanding of the CHS nurses' experiences. Data were collected in 13 interviews, and a qualitative content analysis was performed. The analysis of interviews with CHS nurses resulted in two main categories, each with three subcategories. The main categories are: working for equality and applying a family focus, and dealing with challenges in the developing assignment. The IPCs stimulate the CHS nurses to work for more equality and to apply a family focus, which can be a way of strengthening the families' health and the children's upbringing. Developing the CHS nurses' assignment can be a challenge that appears to entail positive outcomes for CHS nurses, while also generating the need for CHS nurses to receive supervision to find ways to improve their approach and practice.

AIM
The aim of this study was to describe Child Health Service (CHS) nurses' experiences with conducting individual parental conversations (IPCs) with non-birthing parents.
BACKGROUND
CHS nurses in Sweden mainly focus on monitoring a child's physical and mental development and the mothers' health in order to support their parenthood. The assignment of the CHS includes identifying dysfunctional social relationships in a family and strengthening responsive parenting. An imbalance arises within the family when someone in the family suffers from illness, which could have a negative effect on the whole family's health and well-being.
METHODS
An inductive, descriptive qualitative study design was used to describe and to gain an understanding of the CHS nurses' experiences. Data were collected in 13 interviews, and a qualitative content analysis was performed.
FINDINGS
The analysis of interviews with CHS nurses resulted in two main categories, each with three subcategories. The main categories are: working for equality and applying a family focus, and dealing with challenges in the developing assignment. The IPCs stimulate the CHS nurses to work for more equality and to apply a family focus, which can be a way of strengthening the families' health and the children's upbringing. Developing the CHS nurses' assignment can be a challenge that appears to entail positive outcomes for CHS nurses, while also generating the need for CHS nurses to receive supervision to find ways to improve their approach and practice.
