Hi, have you been able to ask your setting about this?

They'll possibly tell you about the links they have with the Local Authority's Early Years department, any speech therapy services they use or could use if ever needed, a local children's centre, GP surgery - doctor and health visitors.

I've only just started this one and obviously my nursery is closed over weekends and not gonna bother my managers over the weekend which is why I posted on here hoping for some help.

Hi, yes of course. If it helps page 143 of this handbook identifies 'people' as parents, colleagues and other professionals - if you search inside the amazon preview for partnership working you can read this page.

If you have the book, page 146 goes on to list the professionals in a table alongside an explanation of their role.

Social worker
Speech and language therapist
Police liaison officer
Dietician
Sensory impairment team
Family doctor (GP)
Pediatrician
Health visitor
Child psychiatrist
Play therapist
Educational psychologist
SENCO
Early years teacher
Family outreach officer
Early years advisor
