‘From the very first page, Cathy Nutbrown and Jools Page lay down the twin cornerstones of this fabulous book, the sheer brilliance of babies’ minds and the daunting challenges facing those who work with them professionally.
Babies do not get a good press. They may be photogenic but the phrase ‘left holding the baby’ reveals underlying attitudes! In early years work, the first months and years are often dismissed as the least professionally engaging or challenging. It would be easy to romantise this age phase. There is a much mess, mopping and repetition. However, the great contribution of this book is to tell a bigger story.
At the heart of much debate about the professional care of babies and young children is anxiety – is it harmful for such young children to be looked after outside the family? The book is reassuing on that score, revising attachment theory and updating its intepretation. Then there are the extraordinary insights into babies’ perceptual abilities, freshly woven into the story from disciplines beyond education - health, psychology and neuroscience.
This is a principled book, underpinned by a commitment to advocacy and respect for under threes. Yet it is practical too, rich in case vignettes and linked reflections. I hope it will come to be regarded as required reading by those with responsibility for children under three’ - Peter Elfer, Senior Lecturer in Early Childhood Studies, Roehampton University
