We are an Internet based communication organisation focused on early years childcare provision and information.

earlyyearsonline has been conceived and designed by  child care specialists to meet the specific needs of the childcare sector and parents seeking help and advice.

We felt it increasingly important for the entire childcare community to access the World Wide Web and have therefore created the opportunity for every validated provider to have a professional Internet presence irrespective of their size or resources.

earlyyearsonline’s web site, developed by Internet specialists, is very quick to access and easy to navigate for both provider and parent.

Our aims and objectives are:

• To provide a comprehensive directory of all validated child care provision nationally

• To create a highly visible and accessible site to anyone seeking information or advice on child care matters via the Internet

• To augment and work in partnership with Government and other organisations

• To provide clear and simple Internet links to other major sites of importance and interest

• To develop an integrated approach, cost effective for all, including after school and holiday clubs, playgroups, childminder networks, crèches, pre-schools and nurseries

• To create a service dedicated to early years

• To utilise professional/commercial infrastructure to assure reliability, speed and accessibility

• To Develop a complementary service in line with the National Child care Strategy

• To promote local authorities and TECs with Child care Information Services

• To facilitate feedback and communication from the public at large

• To develop future services to meet the needs of the childcare community and the public at large
