Description
The long-awaited revision of RESPECT which is now 10 years old, is here! Featuring new chapters and updated research and terminology and in full colour and larger format publication.
“This book provides early childhood professionals with practical guidance for the highly valuable calling of caring for and educating young hearts and minds. Toni Christie successfully combines research and practice to guide adults in providing responsive and respectful relationships that model attunement with the child. Her book will leave readers in no doubt that an essential ingredient of sensitive and respectful environments is a close and nurturing adult-child relationship. Building on her 2011 publication: Respect: A practitioner’s guide to calm and nurturing infant care and education, this new book draws on contemporary research relating to continuity of care and neuroscience to inform practice. Written in a very user-friendly and practical way, with beautiful photos from Childspace Early Learning Centres scattered throughout, readers of this book will surely improve the quality of their encounters with our youngest citizens.” ~ Dr Janis Carroll-Lind
