Enabling development of childminding services through Training, Liaison and Consultations

Trio Childcare Connections promote and inspire ground breaking, pioneering strategies to value and utilise home-based childcare.
If you are a Local Authority Childminding Lead and want to know more about how Trio Childcare’s excellent history and continuing unrivalled knowledge of Registered Childminding can support you meet your local responsibilities, please contact Caron Lubin or Julia Hinns on 01793 849621, who will be happy to come and meet with you to discuss your specific requirements.

Currently across the South West of England in several Local Authorities, we hold Service Level Agreements to directly support, quality assure, train and develop Registered Childminders and Early Years Settings. Trio continue to tender for such support services, where we feel this will complement our existing business portfolio and where we are sure that we have the expertise and infrastructure to deliver such service to a high quality, exceeding the requirements of the Local Authority.

Additionally however, for those Local Authorities who provide this childminding support directly within their council resources, Trio offer our bespoke training package, TLC, to support you in widening and adapting childminding services to meet government initiatives and your local specific targets.
