What do we mean by wellbeing, and what does it look like as it
takes shape in early childhood? What can we do to support the
wellbeing of children at home and in settings? This book provides
some answers to these complex questions, in a straightforward,
accessible way. PART 1: INTRODUCING WELLBEING describes the
'backdrop' for a new model of wellbeing, outlining research and
policy background, and underpinning early childhood themes. PART 2:
THE THEORY OF WELLBEING defines wellbeing itself, describing the
new model and the mechanism of wellbeing development called
companionable learning. PART 3: EVERYDAY WELLBEING contains ideas
and examples from homes and settings of 'real-life' wellbeing.
Chapter 6: 'All to play for' is rich with ideas and examples of
"profoundly satisfying" wellbeing play. PART 4: INVESTING IN
WELLBEING is about professional development. It covers observation,
assessment and planning; the key person approach; 'when things go
wrong'; and integrating services across settings and communities.
The book ends with the importance of collective wellbeing, arguing
that all young children need experiences of individual and
collective wellbeing, in their families and their communities.
Essential reading for anyone studying early childhood, and for
managers and practitioners working with young children and their
families, this book is an inspirational guide to developing a
framework for wellbeing from birth.
