Childcare spaces available September 2026
One of our wonderful children are off to school in September so we have a very rare space available.

Childminding week 2026

What is Childminding?

Childminding isnt just a job, income or even a career its a way of life a feeling of happiness, love and family. I have been a childminder for 13 years and its shaped me as a person and my whole family. The relationships built last a life time not just with the children but with their whole family, the parents, grandparents, aunties, uncles and so much more. I will be forever thankful for those that have chosen me and continue to choose me to share you wonderful children.

Bug Hunt 🐜🐝🐞

Little one grabbed the bag of bugs this morning and asked 'what can we do?' So I quickly grabbed some bits I had to hand and now they are catching bugs, naming bugs, counting bugs, using their pincer grip, talking about bigger and smaller plus so much more. Totally child led so they are totally engaged and I also have a pot of playdough ready to extend play when we want to.

“Childminders are at the heart of our early years system, providing high quality, flexible care where children can thrive from their earliest days. Their support is invaluable, especially for children with SEND and those from disadvantaged backgrounds.

We’re committed to giving every child the best start in life, and that means backing every part of our early years workforce. I congratulate Coram PACEY on launching the Magic of Childminding campaign and welcome the spotlight it shines on the extraordinary dedication of childminders across England."

Education Secretary, Bridget Phillipson

Today, Coram PACEY's campaign celebrates the vital role childminders play in supporting children, families and communities across England and Wales and encouraging more parents to choose childminding as an option for their family.

It is a love letter to the childminding profession. We want childminders to feel seen, valued and supported by the early years sector and general public because without childminders, we would lose the magic of these home-from-home settings that all children and families deserve to experience.

What do we want you to do:

1) Download the campaign's digital social images and share on your social pages using the hashtag

2) Reach out to your local authority, ask if they have seen the campaign and what they are doing to support it and the childminders in your area.

3) Reflect on your own amazing practice and your impact on the children you care for. We want to hear from you and use your examples in our ‘Magic of Childminding’ report.

Happy Mothers Day

We spent some time last week talking about out mums and how much we love them and why, the children all made some bouquets, cards and biscuits for their mums and they were so proud handing them over on Friday!

Treulion ni beth amser yr wythnos diwethaf yn siarad am ein mamau a faint rydyn ni'n eu caru nhw a pham, gwnaeth y plant i gyd duswau o flodau, cardiau a bisgedi i'w mamau ac roedden nhw mor falch o'u trosglwyddo ddydd Gwener!
