Description
People Under Three puts forward an approach to group day care of very young children that translates child development theory and research into everyday practice. All the practical ideas in the book have been developed and tested in nurseries and family centres in Britain and overseas. It explores the difficult area of child protection and includes a chapter on the staff group and on ways of reducing the stress which caregivers experience in their daily work. People Under Three will be indispensable reading from managers of child care and family centres and private nurseries, for local authority personnel response for registering and inspecting day care facilities and for all those training to work with young children.
