Hmmm well I've just joined mine - we all had to do NCMA quality first and we need to attend 6 training sessions a year
There are some fab resources in the children's centre we can borrow and there's a daytime group for us to meet up (open to any childminder in the area). The group leader was really supportive when I needed her recently as well
I'm really frustrated though cos I want to do more.... like linking up with local schools to offer a wrap around service for parents but there are only 2 minders in the town who've joined the network so it's a bit of a non-starter!
