Support for childminders
Joining the Trio Quality Childminding Network
Trio Childcare Connections offer Childminders the opportunity to join the Trio Quality Childminding Network - a quality improvement process designed to support childminders with their childminding practice.
The network is mapped closely to the EYFS and the requirements of the Ofsted SEF. It supports childminders to reflect on and evidence their own unique childminding service. It is designed to help childminders to consider how best to develop particular areas of their service whilst focussing on providing the best possible experience for children and their families.
Parents and carers can be assured childminders on the network are committed to professional development, enhancing their childminding service.
The network process is clear and can be tailored to a pace and level that suits individual childminders at any particular time (minimum requirements are required). It is designed in stages meaning it is accessible and supportive to all childminders.
The specialist level provides opportunities to extend particular skills.
