Childminding

Our Childminding Development & Network Coordinator offers:

Help finding a childminder
If you are looking for childcare we can help you find a childminder who will meet the needs of you and your child. We can also provide information on fees, contracts and advice on what questions to ask when talking to childminders.

Support for childminders
If you are a childminder then come along to our weekly Childminders Drop-in with the children you care for (see timetable for details). While the children play we can help you build your portfolio, put your policies and procedures in place and access information and advice. Make sure you tell us of any vacancies you have, as we help parents find a childminder and could help you fill them.

Interested in becoming a childminder?
We can point you in the right direction as well as providing ongoing support through the registration process and help you plan your training and development.
