Advice from Home Educators
"For us I wish I had started his scrap book diary at the start, I love to look back at it now as well as add to it, it's something I often share with family too as we do so much I forget to tell them! For academics keep it simple and relax! Keep it simple and individual to your child, I went back to key stage one and moved forward covering any gaps. I don't use national curriculum as I find it a little to fixed but it's a good place to start when figuring out strengths and weaknesses"

Read our FAQ and the legal stuff. Knowing your rights is VERY important.
Are you a child minder willing to care for a home educated child? Add your details here.
Please note: Educational Freedom takes no responsibility for the accuracy of the information listed about each childminder. We recommend caution and common sense when choosing a childminder. Please do your own research and checks before employing a minder.
A childminder can not be legally responsible for providing home education for your child, however, it is acceptable for them to oversee 'homework'.
I’m an Ofsted registered Childminder and a home educating parent of two children. I look after school age children (from when they would start Reception class) which currently is mostly local school kids, however I also provide regular and ad-hoc care for local home educating families. Please get in touch if you’re interested and we can talk about availability!
