Why employ an Early Years Professional?
Having a highly skilled workforce is vital to all early years childcare. In fact, research has shown that the development of young children is directly linked to the qualifications held by the early years workers around them. When you hire an EYP, you can be sure you’re recruiting someone with the highest level of skill and dedication. EYPs can lead and support colleagues, helping them to develop and improve your practice to raise the standards of early years provision across a range of settings. An EYP will: • take responsibility for leading and managing play, care and learning. • develop, introduce, lead and supervise development work. • act as a team leader and inspire others. • possess up-to-date knowledge and understanding of early years practices. • help colleagues to develop and improve their practice. Having just one EYP in your team of early years workers will have a direct and hugely positive effect on every single child and early years worker in your setting.
