The pack contains a video, booklet, poster and questionnaire. Nurseries that complete and send in the questionnaire will receive a certificate and wall chart.

Maxine Henderson, nursery manager at Leapfrog Day Nursery in Smithfield, has previewed the pack. 'The practical suggestions are great in reinforcing what everyone should be doing on a daily basis,' she said.
