This book provides a comprehensive guide to safeguarding and child protection in the early years. Aimed at students and practitioners it offers insight into contemporary developments in early years and safeguarding practice and sets out the legal and policy foundations for effective practice before exploring areas of contemporary concern.

how to identify physical and/or emotional neglect
consequential abuse that can occur as a result of parental behaviours
safeguarding children’s health & well-being
safeguarding against the misuse of technology
communication with parents, carers and the ‘team around the child’ alongside examples of real-life issues and consequences that have arisen when communication has broken down
safeguarding as a member of a team
safeguarding through inter-professional / multidisciplinary work
Written by a multi-disciplinary team who have a wealth of experience in safeguarding and child protection, the early years foundation stage, health visiting, social work, the police, and in leading and managing services, this timely new text is essential reading for all those working with young children.
