This article reviews fundamental articles by domestic authors and describes in detail the development of optimal psychological component of gestational dominance that prepares a woman for maternity being one of the top priorities of early psychoprophylaxis. Toddlers who are at higher risk for mental disorders are categorized into groups depending on contributing factors, i.e., children with residual cerebral abnormalities due to the organic lesion of the central nervous system, children with manifestations of schizotypic diathesis or other genetic disorders, and deprived children.

Specialized services for early psychopreventive care to support mental health and to reduce the prevalence of mental disorders and the severity of deprivation disorders in children are required.
