Mothers of premature newborns face special home care situations due to the conditions of their children after hospital discharge; This requires promoting the positive perception of maternal self-efficacy and thus achieving the reinforcement of behaviors related to the demand for care in relation to motor development.

• Objective: Determine the effect of an interdisciplinary intervention program on maternal self-efficacy and motor development of premature children in the cities of Bogotá and Tunja in comparison with the traditional kangaroo program.
• Methodology: Experimental study, with pretest/posttest design, with experimental and control group, which determines the baseline. With initial evaluation of the groups, randomized assignment, and post-intervention evaluation at 4 weeks and flow-up at 8 weeks. The intervention will be developed in two scenarios, in the outpatient kangaroo plan consultation and at home. The experimental group will receive an intervention based on the promotion of maternal self-efficacy and the motor development of the premature baby. The control group will have traditional kangaroo program care. The sample calculation is 92 participants, 46 in the experimental group and 46 in the control group. The intervention, evaluations and data analysis will be developed by blinded professionals. An analysis of the data will be done by intention to treat.
• Type of results expected to be obtained: It is expected to obtain an intervention that promotes maternal self-efficacy for the adequate stimulation of the motor development of the premature baby. It is expected to enhance the confidence and empowerment of the maternal role, the motor development of children in accordance with the corrected age and the incorporation of ICT for monitoring at home.
