Description:

Secure attachment between child and parent is one of the most important factors in early learning and development, and infant/toddler teachers are the critical third partner in this relationship dance. Extending the Dance in Infant & Toddler Caregiving provides an in-depth blueprint for establishing and maintaining a relationship-based early childhood program that promotes young children’s optimal development. This warm and practical resource will help caregivers develop nurturing relationships with young children while also strengthening parent-child attachment. Copublished with Brookes Publishing.

"Wisely and beautifully shows how depth, quality, and continuity of relationship with babies makes us better 'dancers'. These authors know where school readiness really begins."
