What area are you in Fairydust?

Evening... childminders don't usually work evenings. Some are registered to provide overnight care, but not many.
What hours exactly are you needing childcare for - eg. 5pm-11pm?
How old is DD?
Would you want your DD cared for at your home, or would you want to take your DD to somewhere else and collect again late a night/early morning?

I'm in derbysdhire
it'll be more 3.30 (i.e school pick up) till 6 /6.30

Those hours are perfect for a childminder!

Ah, after-school care. Most childminders (subject to having the space and collecting from the particular school) will be able to offer that. Contact Derbyshire County Council Children's Information Service on 08456 058 058 for a list of childminders in your area with vacancies for After School Care.

Also, speak with the school secretary, as they may know of childminders who collect from the school already.
