Childminding in home setting. Need inspiration

[Puddingmum]

I'm currently a childminder and due to lock down I am no longer working so I'm using these time to improve my business however I dont have a separate space for childminding. I have an open plan living room that comes straight off the front door and I'm looking for inspiration on how other childminders organise their stuff. I have little storage space. I'm worried that parents coming in just see my living room with toys chucked in rather than a childcare setting.

there are lots of tips here, mainly to do with storage, and the fact that less is more. Do you have any space under the stairs, or under a kitchen island etc? dc are small, so those kind of spaces provide storage that is the perfect height for them, and would make the room less cluttered etc.
