Childminders in the North West are being urged to sign up to a new website.
Jacqui Harbinson, a Limavady childminder, has set up
www.childmindingonline.co.uk for other childminders and parents in the
council areas of Derry, Strabane or Limavady.
Among its aims will
be to help childminders publicise their services and advertise vacancies to
prospective parents as well as providing computer skills for childminders.
The site will provide a one-stop shop where childminders can explain the type
of provision available - whether it is working part time with pre-schoolers,
full time with babies or providing after school care.
It will also
help childminders to develop skills such as setting up an email address and
accessing activities for the children they care for on a daily basis.
Additionally, there will be a forum on the website for childminders to discuss
issues relevant to them in their profession.
To receive further
information on the website contact 028 777 62618/07840 288278 or
mail@childmindingonline.com.
