Registered childminders

Registered childminders will be helped to promote and develop their service with a new portfolio launched by Croydon Early Years Development and Childcare Partnership. The portfolio is divided into three sections under the headings of business records, training records, and 'about my childminding service'. Each section has space for essential documents such as a valid Ofsted registration certificate, insurance documents and training records. The portfolio can also contain publicity material such as sample policies and procedures. Louisa Woodley, council cabinet member for education and lifelong learning, said, 'Over 700 childminders are currently registered in Croydon. With one of these portfolios, childminders can show they have a professional, organised attitude to their work. Parents will also benefit, as it will make the process of seeking childcare that little bit easier.' For a portfolio contact Claire Treacy, childminding development officer, on 020 8239 4485.
