Healthy Young Children Sixth Edition

Now more than ever, the health and safety of children requires the collaboration of educators, program administrators, healthcare professionals, communities, and families. Understanding children’s health; creating, implementing, and following sound health and safety policies and procedures; and learning to treat and respond to health concerns and emergencies are critical to the success of every early learning program. 

Developed by pediatric physicians, healthcare providers, and early childhood educators, the fully revised sixth edition of Healthy Young Children focuses on how education and healthcare professionals can work with children and families to promote physical and mental health and provide safe and healthy environments.
