Storytime for Childminders

This case study highlights the positive impact of Storytime sessions delivered for childminders across Portsmouth and the surrounding areas. Funded by the Thames Valley and South Central Early Years Stronger Practice Hub, the sessions provide opportunities for childminders to network, share good practice, and access literacy-rich activities with their minded children. The initiative addresses isolation and barriers to professional development, helping to build a more connected and confident workforce that supports high-quality early education and improved outcomes for children.
