September/October 2021. With the children settled back into the setting and school we have had a little move about in our outside play area. We seem to have so much more space 🤷‍♀️

An update from Debbie and Michelle at Camden Bears Childminding.....
Despite COVID-19 and all of the challenges set before us we remain open. We have got ourselves into a good cleaning and rotation of the toys system.
Since re-opening in June 2020 after the first lockdown we decided to base our setting outside for most of the day, come rain or shine!
New toys and equipment have been purchased, even an outdoor heater so that when we have our lunch outside in the play zone we can keep the children warm.
Oh boy, have we had a lot of rain lately! Rain definitely does not stop play at Camden Bears.
Under the current climate we are not looking to take on any new families. We are currently full and do not expect this to change prior to September, 2021 when some of our bear cubs head off to primary school.
Good luck with your search for childcare, stay safe.

Good luck in your search.

We had to close our business on the 20th March 2020 following Government guidelines not knowing if or when we would be able to re-open.

Needless to say we had concerns, how would we be able to survive without earning and how could we sustain our business which we have built up and worked hard to get us to where we are today.

We have had such fantastic support from the families of the children that we care for. Words cannot express how appreciative and thankful we are for the support that we have received since March.

Finally we received the news to prepare to re-open for all children as of the 1st June 2020. Mixed emotions, relieved to be able to re-open, how can we make this work, worried, concerned and apprehensive were just a few of the emotions we were feeling.

We have been open now for nearly 2 weeks and it has been lovely to have the children back, we won’t lie it has been hard work and we are continually Risk Assessing and adapting things on a daily basis.

A little of what the children have been up to since we re-opened.

Fortunately, with the support of our families we remain full and do not have any vacancies and do not anticipate things changing anytime soon. 😊

How true is this..
