Childcare is a rewarding profession, but the nature of the work means it can exert a significant emotional toll on practitioners, especially where sensitive issues are rarely discussed or acknowledged.
This is why we began our 'Let's Talk About ...' series, where groups of practitioners from a wide range of settings discuss tricky subjects, from touch to male practitioners to biting. All the groups who have participated have found airing these issues and talking frankly about them with peers to be a helpful experience. And we hope Nursery World readers have also gained from the comments and used them to examine their own attitudes.
