Childminder's Support
Pear Tree Children's Centre supports childminders by providing a venue at which they can meet each week.
They meet each Tuesday with their babies and toddlers and use the opportunity to share ideas and information and help each other.
They have completed a 2 week taster course about
'First Basic Makaton Signs'.
Lisa Wilson Lambert , the centre's Childminder Co-ordinator is supporting the childminders in the Fylde area and helping them to form a childminders network.
