From Birth to Five Years

Based on the work of Mary Sheridan, this text sets out each stage of normal development in young children. The authors also describe suitable developmental tests for hearing and vision, advise when to refer a child for specialist attention and provide information about support services available to children and families with special needs. This second edition has been revised and fully updated to take account of the latest legislation and research.

Emphasis is placed on providing high standards of care by working in partnership with parents and other carers to promote the health of children.
