Mary Sheridan's from Birth to Five Years

"From Birth to Five Years, based on the pioneering work of Mary Sheridan, has become a classic guide to the developmental progress of pre-school children. It is widely recognised as an invaluable reference for professionals training or working in health, education and social care." "Guidance is offered on ages at which children typically achieve key stages, whilst recognizing individual variation in the rate of development and the influence of the child's environment. Based on an ethos of health promotion and the need for a common assessment framework the book will be welcomed by all those who work with infants and young children."--BOOK JACKET.
