Lothian Childcare Solutions

Lothian Childcare Solutions are the First Childcare Agency to be based in East Lothian. We offer a wide range of childcare services and are always looking to recruit new workers to help us provide these services. All of our agency staff must obtain PVG Scheme Membership through Disclosure Scotland and, where required, have SSSC Membership. After careful planning and discussion, we will provide you with childcare arrangements that meet yours and your children’s needs. We Can Provide: Babysitters A Babysitter usually babysits in the parent's / guardian's home for a few hours during the evening, but can also babysit for children staying in hotels or at weddings and other venues. Nannies A Nanny provides childcare for one or more children in the parent's / guardian's own home. They can be hired to work on a temporary or permanent basis and can live in with the family or live out. Mothers Helpers Mother's Helpers aren't just for mums, they tend to work alongside a parent or guardian rather than have sole care of the children. Contracts can be short, medium or long-term. Early Learning and Childcare Workers Early Learning and Childcare Workers work within childcare services such as nurseries, playgroups, breakfast, after school and holiday clubs. Contracts can be short, medium or long-term. We aim to offer high quality, responsive and flexible childcare solutions to those who use our service, including families, providers of care services, staff and potential applicants. To ensure the best outcomes for the children being cared for by staff supplied by Lothian Childcare Solutions, we will: • ensure that we recruit only experienced and qualified childcare staff who have been through a rigorous and thorough recruitment procedure with us • endeavour to ensure that staff skills and knowledge are matched to children’s needs and interests • promote a learning culture for staff and provide up to date information and resources related to their role • use a variety of effective communication tools to ensure that we are engaging and communicating with the people who use our services and those who work with us • encourage feedback and involvement in order to improve outcomes for children • use effective quality assurance systems and processes which involve the people who use our service, staff and stakeholders to assess the quality of service we provide All enquiries welcome, please also get in touch if you are looking to work in childcare.
