About us....

Created in 2007 by experienced childminders as a one-stop-shop tailor made for childminders, we aim to keep bringing you new resources to help in your work with children. We know how difficult it is for childminders to find craft materials in small enough amounts and this is one of our priorities.

Jenny is a qualified Speech and Language Therapist and worked with children for many years in the NHS. Nick has a business background and also has experience with children.

Toys which encourage imaginative play, social development, language and communication, physical development and problem solving are of vital importance to the growing child and our toys and crafts are selected for their early years educational value.

                                      

We also take ecology and conservation seriously and try where possible to purchase from suppliers who use sustainable materials and good practice.  In addition, we try to recycle* where possible to help the environment and to help keep costs low.

We would be happy to hear from you if you have a suggestion or know of a product you think we should stock, so please feel free to email us with your suggestions to sales@thechildmindingshop.co.uk

                     *How we recycle...                    

We are a small business and we try to recycle all packaging that comes our way.  We re-use boxes or packaging most of the time and will always use suitable packaging for your goods.  We feel this is really important as it keeps costs down (so cheaper prices for you) and is so much better for the environment.

If you would like to tell us your view on this, please feel free to email, all feedback - good or bad is welcome!

We wish you well in your childcare business!
