This growing area of work is first contextualised by reference to contemporary developments in early years policy and practice in the United Kingdom. Later in the article educational psychologist early years practice is described and a conceptualisation which includes consideration of a number of theoretical foundations and perspectives is offered. Finally, a number of issues and dichotomies for educational psychologists working in this area are identified and some ideas for evolving practice are suggested.
