Key Persons in the Nursery: Building relationships for quality provision. By Peter Elfer, Elinor Goldschmied and Dorothy Selleck. (David Fulton Publishers, ISBN 1-84312-079-8, 17, 020 8996 3618)
Reviewed by Marian Whitehead, language and early years consultant
This is an accessible and enjoyable book for practitioners and students who work in nurseries, and a fitting celebration of the pioneering work of Elinor Goldschmied, who certainly taught me how to look at babies and learn from them. There is no lack of challenge in this important research study of the nature of the key-person approach to working with babies and young children and ways to implement it in your own nursery.
