About your Course
Nurseries and child minders provide parents with a trusted partner to look after and nurture their children while they are otherwise occupied.
The reassurance parents get comes from the training early years professionals receive. Understanding the learning experience of children and the developmental leaps they make is essential to supporting them effectively.
This course will introduce you to many of these principles, including growth and development, supporting babies in play and respecting and valuing children.
You will also learn about the benefits of learning through music, science, technology and art. You will apply what you’ve learned to create fun and engaging activities to teach young children about the world around them.
The course also covers the value of learning through play, confidence building through play, healthy living, nutrition and effective communication with young children.
