Embedding a pedagogy of care: Enhancing quality practice and outcomes for infants and toddlers

It’s widely recognised that nurturing and responsive care in infancy forms a foundation for healthy development. Yet, knowing, prioritising and embedding quality, age-appropriate practices for toddlers and infants in early childhood education settings can present challenges.
