📢 Early Learning and Childcare Survey for Parents and Carers

We want to understand families’ experiences of Early Learning and Childcare, including:

💬How families currently use childcare 💬What works well
💬Any difficulties in accessing places or hours

Your feedback will help build a clear picture of the needs and experiences of families across Clackmannanshire. Who should complete it?

We would like to hear from:

🗣Parents and carers of children under school age
🗣Families currently using childcare
🗣Those who have used it previously
🗣Those who may use it in the future

🕐 Takes around 10 minutes to complete

Our childminding week went something like this. My hands were full just enjoying the fun, that I didn't capture too many photographs.

Aww how lovely to see my wee mindees and I on the Bookbug page. The kids really do love these sessions.

We love using Bookbug! It’s a fantastic (and free!) resource that helps the children develop a love for stories, songs, and rhymes. Bookbug is a huge part of how I support your child’s speech, language, and confidence. It’s all about making learning fun through play!

The Children's Toothbrushing Guide - Starting Reception Baby teeth aren’t just practice teeth. They help children bite and chew, support speech development, guide adult teeth into place and boost confidence when smiling. When teeth aren't cared for, it leads to tooth decay which can cause pain, infection and long-term oral health problems.
