Cm Club - Do we need a name for my type of care?

[KatyMac]

Several childminders working together from one house?

A clique of Cm's

I can't see myself advertising as a clique, can you?

A murder of cm's, like crows

Or a Coven

Home Nursery

Shosha, coven - ha

Childminders Circle?

Gee thanks guys, that would make parents really love me

I'm not sure OFSTED would like anything with 'nursery' in it

I must ring them to ask

chilminding co operative?

the words 'co-operative' & 'co-op' are controlled and can only be used if you are one - but that is on the right lines - I wonder if we could be a co-op, I'll do some investigating

What about Combined Childminding? ( see I have got a sensible head as well )

Katy mac,

How about 'childminding circle'

Jen

Katy's Childminding Group

Thanks chaps - I guess I was thinking in a sort of country wide policy kind of way rather than a name for us (iyswim)

Ahhh then Collective Chilminding!

Collective Childminding
Childminding Circle
Combined Childminding
Group Childminding
Home Nursery

I wonder if NCMA & OFSTED have a view - I must give them a ring

When choosing a name, you may also want to think about other factors, such as:

Will parents know at a glance, what service you are providing?

Is the name quite short - so not too costly to be embroidered onto workwear, and also available as a domain name?

I like Collective Childminding and Combined Childminding, though they may need a subhead to describe more fully what they actually mean.

Nick, I am not creating a company name i am looking for a generic description that all 'covens' of childminders can use
