Out of School Childcare Clubs
Out of school childcare clubs help parents or carers who work or attend training. They provide breakfast clubs, after school clubs, holiday clubs and wrap around play-care for school age Children.
Registration:
Many schools have out of school childcare clubs, while other clubs are based in village halls, community centres and day nurseries. Children’s attendance is registered and they are given a snack and a drink. Where appropriate, clubs are registered and inspected by CSSIW and qualified or trained play staff supervise activities (one member of staff to every 8 children under 8 years of age). The play environment should be stimulating and varied with a range of activities such as arts/crafts, games and physical play for children to choose from. A quiet area for reading and homework may also be available. Children are supervised until a parent or carer arrives to collect them. Sometimes a collection service may be available to take children to school from the club and take them home at the end of their day.

Breakfast Clubs
Creche
Crèches
Crèches provide occasional care for children while their parents are shopping, playing sport or on a course for example. Parents are expected to remain on the same premises, although not necessarily in the same room. A crèche must be registered if it takes children under 8 years, runs for 2 hours or more a day and for 6 or more days a year on the same premises (even if the child attends for shorter periods).
Childminders

Registered childminders are day care providers who work in their own homes caring for children.

Childminders are responsible for your child’s safety as well as their emotional and physical development. They should provide a mix of play and learning experiences inside and outside the home.

Childminders must have:
a registration certificate issued by CSSIW
a public liability insurance certificate
Fees and Flexibility
Childminders are self-employed and set their fee. They can offer flexible childcare, year round, full-time or part-time and outside school hours. They can look after up to 6 children of varying ages at the same time and can therefore care for brothers and sisters together.

Parents do not have to speak Welsh for their children to attend Cylchoedd Meithrin. Special Educational Needs and Disabilities.
