We are working with the Scottish Childminding Association (SCMA) to recruit childminders to deliver quality and flexible childcare.
The Scottish Government is funding a national childminder retention and recruitment programme that aims to grow the workforce, and we are taking part in the Programme for Scotland’s Childminding Future.
Support includes:
- a package of fully funded support
- training and assistance through the registration process
- a £750 start-up grant for newly-registered childminders completing the programme to help set up your new business
Childminding is an extremely rewarding career. Childminders also report enjoying the flexibility of being able to run their own business from home and earning an income while bringing up their own children.
No previous childcare experience is required, but it’s essential to have a passion for working with and supporting the learning and development of children.
