go to www.childcarelink.gov.uk Type in your postcode and choose the childminders option. You can read childminders Ofsted reports on www.ofsted.gov.uk choose the childminders option and put in your postcode and it will give you them all in a radius of your home, make note of the registration number of any you are interested in and contact your CIS for further details. Hope this helps.
