Childminders play a vital role in supporting children, families and local communities across England and Wales. At Coram PACEY, we are committed to championing the importance of childminders and ensuring your voice is heard across the sector.
That’s why taking part in our latest survey is so important. Every response helps us build a powerful, evidence-based picture of childminding in 2026. The more childminders who take part, the stronger our ability to highlight your impact, advocate for better support, and ensure childminding is recognised as an essential part of the early years system.
Our survey will help us understand the full picture of childminding today – from the care you provide and the families you support, to the unique role you play in your communities. The findings will inform an important report launching during Childminding Week 2026, helping us advocate for childminders and highlight the essential support you provide to families every day.
By completing this survey, you are helping to paint a picture of childminding. Your experiences and insights will directly contribute to conversations about recognition, impact, family support and the sustainability of the sector.
The survey takes around 10 minutes to complete and is open to childminders in England and Wales. As a thank you for your time, everyone who completes the survey will be entered into a prize draw to win one of three £50 vouchers*.
This survey closes on 23 April.
