Choosing a childminder
Childminders offer a flexible and secure childcare service from their own home.
Payments now working again
The issue with our payment forms has now been resolved.
Childminders are categorised as childcare providers.
It is best to select a provider that has been graded Good (Grade 2) or Outstanding (Grade 1). Research has shown that nurseries and childminders that provide a high quality of care and education have a more positive impact on children’s learning and development.

Paying for childminding services
Financial arrangements are a private matter to be agreed between parent and child minder.
