Looking after Children and running a business from your own home may seem a daunting prospect at first. However there is plenty of help, advice and guidance available to you from our NCMA (Essex) partners during the registration process.

So what information would you need about Childminding to help make the decision to attend a briefing session?

We have worked with our NCMA partners and obtained guidance from Ofsted to produce a range of factsheets. These will, we trust, explain what is involved, what support you can expect to receive and hopefully convince you that you have the qualities to become a Childminder.
