RE: Raising the profile of Nursery Nurses

Hi Kimme, one item and an important one to address is that the Early Years sector does not (me and my lecturer at uni have looked a lot) have an Ethical Statement to support it. I think with the help of ASPECT the union mentioned earlier in this forum we need to campaign to develop one. Most professions have one, I do not quite understand how we have been overlooked but there we are. I would also urge all Nursery Staff whatever your role to join a union of some kind that suits you. They are an invaluable source of advice and support.
So maybe that's a start for a campaign to create an Ethical Statement for the Early Years Sector . Teachers have one, youth workers, nurses, physio's, social workers etc to name but a few.
Let me know your thoughts
kind regards Chey
