The new identity aims to re-position the association as ‘a standard-setting professional association’ for childcare professionals, including childminders, nursery workers and nannies.
PACEY’s new president is leading childcare expert and author Penny Tassoni (pictured).
Liz Bayram and Catherine Farrell, joint chief executives of PACEY, said, ‘PACEY is being launched at a critical time for childcare when multiple changes are being considered in the sector, from new entry and qualification requirements to childminder agencies and ratio changes.
‘For the first time PACEY will enable one voice to represent all childcare professionals. Working with our members, we will focus on setting standards, promoting best practice and supporting our members to deliver high standards of care and learning. Our report shows that childminders, nannies and nursery workers sharing a dedication to giving children the best start in life and we want to ensure they are supported, recognised and rewarded for doing so.’
