To any of my followers who are childminders or work in a childcare, a dear friend of mine has just launched this group.
Check it out! It’s looks great x

After months of planning, chats over coffee/cola, and real-life experience running childcare settings… we’re so excited to finally launch Nurture Childcare — a brand new Facebook community created by childminders, for childminders (and nannies, and small settings too!).

👶 What makes us different?
This isn’t just another Facebook group — it’s a virtual staff room. A supportive, no-pressure space where you can ask questions, share wins, get real advice, and feel seen. No drama, no judgment, no overwhelm. Just honest support from people who get this job.

✨ Who can join?
• Registered childminders
• Nannies
• Tiny nursery teams or small settings
• Anyone working solo or in small early years spaces
• Trainees and newly registered welcome too!

🎁 EXCITING GIVEAWAY COMING THIS WEEK!
We’ve got something lovely planned to celebrate our first week live — free resources, helpful downloads, and a special giveaway for members only. You won’t want to miss it.

💬 Whether you're experienced or just starting out, you belong in this community. Join us now and feel instantly more supported in your day-to-day.

👇 Come join the group here:

Tag friends in the comments, invite them to your virtual staffroom!

If you have a child under the age of 5 please fill out this survey.

It’s quick and simple to do. 😁

🗣PARENT SURVEY LAUNCHED - CHILDCARE AND YOU. 👧🧒

With the new expansion of childcare entitlements being fully rolled from September we want to hear from parents about what they need and look for when it comes to childcare.

We would be grateful if early years providers could share this with parents, the survey takes about 10 minutes to complete and is available until the end of June. 👌
