The importance of the first years of life is indisputable, and yet the focus on the play, care and learning of birth to three-year-olds ebbs and flows on the tide of policy development. This book advocates for a continued, considered and informed spotlight to be shone on the rights and needs of babies, toddlers and two-year-olds and how to provide for them well in early years settings.
Opening a window on what it is like to be a baby or young child in an early years setting, the book addresses not only ‘what’ educators in settings should do but through theory and examples of good practice explores ‘why’ and ‘how’ effective provision for birth to three-year-olds can be developed.
