We are delighted to be joined by Alice Sharp, for this conference for childminders to support C&L Development
About this Event

The child is at the heart of everything Alice does. She delivers high quality training that is transformational in upskilling Early Years Professionals in the understanding and knowledge of child development and learning for today and the future.

The keynote will explore how to support listening skills, including attention, recognising sounds, understanding meaning, and hearing the difference between sounds.

Alice will share easy, everyday ideas that can be used in home play spaces to support communication, language, and vocabulary through play.

Alice will also lead workshops on the following areas:

  • Spaces and Places for Play
  • Materials for Play: Supporting Learning Through Thoughtful Choices
  • The Role of the Adult: The Most Important Resource in Play
