London childminders survey

London childcare providers survey 2010

 

Have your say in election year! – be part of the voice of London childcare.


In collaboration with the Daycare Trust, NCMA is again participating in The London Childcare Providers Network (LCPN) which will provide opportunities for information exchange. This includes network meetings, events and forums to which childminders will be encouraged to fully participate or share their views as valued members of the childcare workforce. 

 

Providing information enables the collective responses to be shared with policy-makers. Last year, more childminders responded to the survey than any other group. You can see the results of last year's survey here (external link).
 
This is part of a London-wide initiative funded by London Councils and co-coordinated by the Daycare Trust and in collaboration with the Pre-School Learning Alliance.

 

A forum was held on 23rd June 2009 and a further one is planned for this summer; research is being done in the form of a London Childcare Providers Survey.

 

NCMA needs as many childminders to complete this survey as possible to keep childminding high on the agenda and ensure issues specific to childminders and best practice are fully captured.

 

You can view or respond to the survey here (external link). Please take a few minutes of your time to share your views (the compulsory questions should take no more than five minutes).

 

We do know you are extremely busy people but would really appreciate your time to complete this by 8 June 2010. 
 
All responses are co-ordinated by Deborah Brodie from the Daycare Trust who can be reached via e-mail dbrodie@daycaretrust.org.uk; or at London Childcare Project Coordinator, Daycare Trust 020 7940 7512 (direct line); 020 7940 7510 (switchboard).
