Meeting of the Childminding network

Network members meet at conference

The MSA childminding network members were delighted to meet for the second year running after the MSA National Conference in March 2014.  We discussed our new Facebook page `Montessori childminding network, our response to Elizabeth Truss on changes including childminding agency proposals, and the success of the new CPD module for childminders. Many Montessori students and graduates  shared enthusiasm for opening a childminding setting as a viable option for their Montessori careers.

The dynamic network functions in the same way as the MSA regions, and we can offer you:

Support to enable delivery of high standards of home-based Montessori practice.

Support towards MEAB accreditation.

CPD training opportunities tailored to childminders’ needs.

Support in order to raise the profile of Montessori education in your local area.

Practical and business support for the particular challenges of working as Montessori educators in a home-based environment.

If you are interested in working as a Montessori childminder please contact our network co-ordinator,  Jenny McArthur for more information, jenny@drakesmontessori.co.uk
