Childminder Support

The have promoted Childminding at a local, regional and national level in order to inform decision makers about what really happens in the day to day delivery of childminding services. They have taken part in a variety of consultations which has shaped the delivery of childminding. In recent times they have engaged with the delivery of the offer for 2 year olds and are keen to take on the challenge of the 30 hour offer for 3 and 4 year olds.

While the numbers of childminders working in the city has dropped in these 40 years what remains is a dedicated, well trained and well informed workforce that believe home based care is good for children.
