Co-creation, advisory group and piloting
MINOR
Co-creation of the intervention protocol and piloting were undertaken at the Loughborough University Nursery (Leicestershire, UK). Researchers and advisory group members (three nursery staff members) met twice before piloting the planned intervention over two days in November 2021. Nursery staff were observed carrying out the intervention tasks and subsequently provided feedback about the protocol, resulting in minor adjustments which are reflected in the study described below. The pilot nursery and staff did not take part in the feasibility trial reported here.
