With the revised EYFS placing renewed emphasis on working with parents, this is a timely book. The authors explain how communication skills are vital to this relationship and building a sense of community between home and nursery or school.
It is designed to increase practitioners' levels of self-awareness, improve listening skills, and show how to communicate with different parent 'types'.
