Could you see yourself working with young children, helping them to learn and develop?

Start Your Own Childminding Business
with @Home Childcare


We are working with the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) and the
'Do Something Big' childcare recruitment campaign, to help people with
a passion for working with children to set up their own childminding business.
Childminders are skilled and qualified professionals who provide care and learning for other people’s children in their own homes. They also play a vital role in delivering early years education to help improve the outcomes of the children they work with.
As well as equipping you with the skills and knowledge you need to become a Good or Outstanding childminder educator, our high-quality training programme can also help you establish and maintain a sustainable and profitable childcare business.
At the end of our programme, you’ll be a registered childminder with the skills and experience you need to provide high quality childcare services to your community and make a positive impact on the lives of local children.
With the government’s ongoing expansion of funded childcare for families, there’s never been a better time to register and become a childminder!
