has just 1,277 days
between birth and
starting nursery
education. Together,
we want to ‘make
them count’ for the
children, for their
families and for the
toddler groups that
they attend.

53. Articulate and encourage
good practice within toddler
groups and churches.
Raise awareness of effective
strategies for confident
parenting.
Promote effective strategies
for developing spirituality
and faith for toddlers and
parents/carers.
