Elizabeth Jarman supports NCMW

National Childminding WeekElizabeth Jarman is supporting this year’s music themed National Childminding Week in Bristol.

 

Elizabeth, former assistant director with the Basic Skills Agency, who also led the Government’s national Skills for Families Project, will be in the city on Thursday 17 June , talking to childminders and families about Communication Friendly Spaces™.

 

An interactive exhibition, developed jointly with NCMA and showcasing how the approach has been used by childminders to support children’s communication skills, will be on display all week at the Bristol Central Library. Elizabeth will be meeting all visitors and families at the exhibition on 17 June between 3-5pm.

 

Elizabeth will then address around 40 registered childminders at The Pavilion. After her talk, she will be signing copies of her Childminder Place to Talk book, which demonstrates her ideas in practice.

 

Elizabeth said that "childminders have really run with the ideas underpinning Communication Friendly Spaces™ and demonstrated some fantastic practice in the home context, centred on their close relationships with children and families."
