Veronica Read

Developing Attachment in Early Years Settings

Nurturing secure relationships from birth to five years

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Providing an accessible introduction to attachment thinking, this practical book offers early years practitioners advice on implementing attachment principles in their setting. It clearly explains how knowledge about such thinking underpins everyday practice such as the role of the Key Person and highlights the crucial role of secure attachments in young children's learning and development. The book examines the importance of emotional 'holding' and the nuturing of individual relationships within group childcare and aims to help you make a real difference to young children's sense of self and emotional security by being 'tuned in', available, responsive and consistent.
