Training & Consultancy
Consultancy service
Daycare Trust offers professional consultancy services tailored to suit the needs of those working in childcare, early years and wider children's services across England and Wales. Daycare Trust works with local authorities, childcare providers and employers to offer research, analysis, advice and solutions to their challenges.
Our work provides a unique approach to each individual client, with high quality results and value for money. Each project is rigorously managed through an outcomes based system that offers flexibility in planning to accommodate changes that occur during the course of a project. As Daycare Trust is not linked to any type of childcare service provision our work is unbiased, and appropriate for each individual client.
