The SDCCC is continuing to support childcare providers in South Dublin County. Nurturing those relationships remains a crucial element of our work and the SDCCC aim to provide relevant support services, including training in line with the organisations strategic objectives.

At present the SDCCC is conducting an Information survey, which we encourage all providers to complete so we can assess your specific needs moving forward into 2012.

Below is an outline of regular support and events:

• Two newsletters will be circulated so keeping providers up to date with policy news, events and training.

• SDCCC have been working closely with Childminders in the county to develop the quality of care being provided through training and information workshops.

• During 2011 SDCCC has coordinated funding available under the Parent & Toddler Grant Scheme and the Professional Development grants to enable childcare workers to access training locally.

• Childcare Provider Visits
South Dublin County Childcare Committee has three Programme Development Officers who support private and community childcare providers in South Dublin County. The aim of the visits is to gather feedback from you in relation to how the SDCCC can assist you and help assess current training and support needs.
