The Clyde Gateway Childminding Project (CGCP) aims to create opportunities for residents of the Clyde Gateway area to become Childminders. This in turn will result in more childcare options for local families. The area has an approximate population of 21,000 and there are currently no registered Childminders within the Glasgow City Council part of this boundary. Through careful selection and robust support, the partners aim to recruit and train 20 new Childminders by March 2020.

In the White Paper, Scotland’s Future, produced before the 2014 referendum on Scottish Independence, the Scottish Government committed to rolling out “A transformational extension of childcare, giving our children the best start in life, making it easier for parents – especially mothers – to return to work and delivering new job opportunities.” This commitment included a “phased and sustainable” expansion of free childcare entitlement for three and four year-olds as well as vulnerable two year-olds.
