Mastering the Transition: A Holistic Approach to Settling In (0–13 Years)
This practical CPD session breaks down the "Settling In" process across the entire 0–13 age spectrum. We will explore everything from handling morning drop-off tears in the toddler room to fostering autonomy and inclusion for older children in SAC settings.
This session will give you the tools and confidence to create a smooth, settling-in experience that guides you in your role, supports the parents/guardians and is child focused.
