Rejected petition Childminders Regulation

More details

We urge the Government to consult with experts, national organisations and practising registered childminders, before deciding on the future regulation of childminders.

Before reaching any decision which will impact on parent’s choice of regulated childcare, children’s equality of opportunities and childminders businesses, the government must ensure this is a step forward with positive benefits to all but especially for children because once missed, opportunities to reach their full potential are hard to recreate, and failure to safeguard a child cannot be reversed.
