Where did I call you personally unprofessional? 
You are missing my point. I don't think childcare should be a "professional" role at all.
I think by turning the "what" of family childcare into what is now, essentially, an early education teaching role in order to validate it and allow women to earn money for it e.g. by "professionalising" the role, we are saying that the act of childcare itself (as it would, say, be done by a SAHM) is invalid. I won't be at all surprised when the day comes where SAHMs are asked to "prove" they are "educating" childcare and I suspect already CMs may be referenced as professionals by mothers e.g. "Mary told me and she's a childminder.
The goals of early childhood development are to become a member of your community. You learn to talk, to play, to explore, to toilet, to eat a range of foods, to say please and thank you, to share and co-operate, to show and accept love and affection. You do not need a "curriculum" to do this in the ordinary way of things, although in my own role I very much appreciate there are children with special educational needs who do benefit from having targeted baselines and goals with respect to some of these areas, the average child will flourish just by being in a stable type family or home environment, wandering about, pottering, getting mucky, watching a person iron (oh shock horror) etc. It just happens. It is the wonder of our humanity that it is as varied and diverse as it is but the current EYFS has the most ludicrous set of almost businessy goals, and some of them don't even make sense in relation to eachother. Knowing some position words, for example, is something that just happens with no tuition, just because, between the ages of 2 and 3.. earlier for some, later for others. Knowing numerals 1-9, on the other hand, is arguably entirely unnecessary before 5... yet I know my 2.5 year old has been "taught" these things at nursery. And that's before we consider the ludicrousness of 20 white british under 2's "celebrating Diwali" when there is no one in the nursery who does, because it's "important" to celebrate other cultures (yet this is entirely conceptually unaccessible for those under-2's).
And as for some of the "social skills" e.g.
? Considers the consequences of words and actions for self and others
? Uses talk to organise, sequence & clarify thinking, ideas, feelings & events, exploring the meanings & sounds of new words
? Understands that people have different needs, views, cultures & beliefs that need to be treated with respect
There are people who are in their 50's who can't do these if you're going to be literal about them. Yes, social development is a massive part of learning for this age range but these descriptors are meaningless and very difficult to operationalise in a true, human way. All of them are things that just happen naturally and are quite difficult and require masses of specific skill to rectify if they don't. You might as well write: - gets taller or - hair grows.
You think "professional" = good and so therefore something to aspire to, and saying something like not working with your own kids there is "unprofessional" is a dig/judgemental/wrong etc. Professional has become a value-laden term associated with identity, when that's not what I mean.
I think "professional" in the childminding context = not good.
Safeguarding policies, not taking unnecessary risks all that = fine.
Seeing it as about "teaching" = over the top.
However, I don't think there's any immediate going back to how it was because a) women wouldn't get paid adequately as to get paid in our current world you have to be achieving achievable tickable targets and b) we don't have the societal structure anymore that supports a more "normal" sort of childcare arrangement.
I simply said that I don't think it's compatible with a "professional" role to have your children on site while you work. I would rather be in a position where my son could be with a lovely old woman like my Nan was who would become part of the family but sadly, that's not affordable for the average family and the alternative is now to just accept that he is going to be "taught" a "curriculum" no matter what. I just think it's stuff and nonsense.
