A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The Child Carer's Handbook provides clear, accessible definitions of the challenges that can face any child at any time. Many children within mainstream settings have particular needs that do not require specialist care, but do require some special understanding from those working with them.

From asthma to bereavement, from ADHD to divorce, visual or hearing impairments, there are all sorts of needs or difficulties which children in our care might face. The Child Carer's Handbook presents the facts in clear, non-technical language, with full glossary and further resources for those who need to find out more.

Ideal for all those studying or working with children across a wide range of mainstream settings, including nurseries, daycare, preschool, playgroups, primary schools and health and social care settings, The Child Carer's Handbook provides a quick and accurate description of particular needs, and details on where to go for further information. It covers a wide range of needs - physical, social, emotional and educational - and gives the non-expert an accurate guide to what the need might mean, and how to manage it. No-one can be an expert in everything, so The Child Carer's Handbook is the essential guide to working with children when you find yourself asking 'What's that? What do I do about that? What should I do?'

Revue de presse

It is the sort of book you will keep referring to over time and could be invaluable to anyone working with children. It would be a great resource to have ready when the need arises.
