About this event

You’ve completed the registration process – now what?

Starting your childminding business is an exciting milestone, but it can also feel a little overwhelming. After focusing so intensely on preparing for your registration visit, many new Childminders are left wondering how to navigate the realities of running a successful setting day to day.

This interactive and practical course is designed to support Childminders in their first year post-registration – or those just about to begin – to grow in confidence, establish strong foundations, and begin to flourish in their role.

Led by one of our experienced consultants, the session will guide you through the next steps of your journey – from setting fees to building relationships with families, creating meaningful play environments to managing your paperwork and accounts. You’ll explore how to market your business, reflect on your practice, and consider how to grow your provision when you’re ready.

Whether you're seeking reassurance, clarity, or motivation, this session will leave you feeling empowered, equipped, and excited about what’s ahead.
