Coram PACEY Cymru offers a range of services to help local authorities and our partners in Wales meet the needs of the early years and childcare sector.

Coram PACEY Cymru is keen to work in partnership with Local Authority Childcare Teams, Family Information Services, and staff for Job Centre Plus, Communities for Work, Colleges and other organisations to raise the awareness of childminding as a career and childcare choice.

Coram PACEY Cymru would welcome the opportunity to deliver awareness raising sessions with staff, to attend events and careers fairs, or to help with queries from individuals who may be interested in taking the next steps to becoming a childminder. For more information call us on 02920 351407 or email us at paceycymru@pacey.org.uk.

Please see a range of leaflets, posters, videos and resources which are available for you to use to promote becoming a childminder, nanny or working in childcare and play as a career choice. You will also find resources and information to support parents in their search for high quality childcare, and available childcare funding. See the range of resources here: Promotion leaflets and resources.
