Birth to 5 Matters is a helpful guide used by nurseries, childminders, and pre-schools to understand how young children grow, learn and explore the world from birth to age 5.
It supports the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) - the framework that helps all children, including those with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), to build strong foundations for learning and life.
Every child deserves the best start. Birth to 5 Matters helps ensure children are given the care, support, and opportunities they need to grow, learn and thrive, especially if they have SEND.
