💚 Relationships are at the heart of childcare
Every day, registered childminders and Approved Home Childcarers build connections with children through play, everyday routines, listening and offering comfort and reassurance. These small moments can help children feel secure, understood and supported.
That’s why NICMA is supporting Togetherness Relationships for Mental Health Week and offering Togetherness training to help childminders reflect on their practice and strengthen their understanding of children’s emotional wellbeing.
