Northern Ireland Childminding Association

Wednesday, October 22, 2003

The benefits of childminding networks to employers will be explained in series of three seminars being held next month by the Northern Ireland Childminding Association, in partnership with Employers for Childcare. The seminars will highlight how networks are a cost-effective way for companies to support their staff because of the range of extra services they offer, including out-of-hours provision, long- and short-term cover, emergency back-up and occasional home-based care. The seminars are in Portadown (6 November), Coleraine (11 November) and Belfast (13 November). For more information, contact Carol Gallagher, NICMA regional childminding networks manager, on 028 9182 3350 or e-mail carol.gallagher@nicma.org.
