This course will cover fundamental principles of a keyworker in an early years environment.
A keyworker in early years plays a vital role in supporting the development of young children. They are responsible for creating a safe, nurturing and stimulating environment that fosters the social, emotional and cognitive growth of each child under their care.
A keyworker serves as a primary point of contact for parents, providing regular updates on their child's progress, milestones, and any concerns. This level of communication helps to establish trust and build a positive relationship between families and early years settings.
Moreover, a keyworker is instrumental in identifying any additional needs a child may have, such as developmental delays or learning difficulties, and working with other professionals to provide early intervention and support. They also play a critical role in helping children develop the necessary skills and behaviours to succeed in school and beyond.
In short, the importance of a keyworker in early years cannot be overstated. They provide invaluable support and guidance to young children and their families, ensuring that every child has the best possible start in life.
