Summary: Focusing on the childcare of very young children, this book translates child development theory and research into everyday practice. Designed specifically for those who look after children day to day, it is also a useful resource for social workers and policy makers. Topics include organizing space for living, learning, and playing; managing and working in a childcare centre; mealtimes; heuristic play with objects; and safeguarding children. This third edition is enhanced with more text boxes and case studies along with suggested readings at the end of each chapter. |
