Business support

Advisory service

Our advisory service provides support for people starting a new childcare business or needing information about how to expand an existing business.

We offer support to existing childcare services, for example finding out about what the Early Years Foundation Stage Statutory Framework (EYFS) mean or how to keep your service open through effective business planning.

Give us a call on 020 8820 7595 and speak to Claudia Thomas our Business Support Officer.
