Having the Childhood Studies with Early Childhood Graduate Practitioner Competencies embedded has opened doors and roles to Helen Haygarth that she had not previously considered, such as her current role as family hub and engagement participation lead at Durham County Council. Her journey began in the early years and has been the foundation to all of Helen’s practice.
She has always advocated for the rights of children in her care and held the view that they should have quality opportunities to play and develop at their own pace in a nurturing environment.
Helen has used her undergraduate dissertation as a way to improve practice in relation to the use of music in early years settings to support children’s wellbeing, learning and development. Her research directly impacted practice with practitioner questionnaires and interviews highlighting areas to reflect upon, which became a focus for setting improvement.
