I know there are lots of members with very strong opinions of NCMA. Please take the time to complete this survery to let the powers that be know what the general feeling is. If no-one completes it then nothing will change!

Thanks xx

Thank you:thumbsup:

There is only so much I can do in my capacity as a volunteer. If the organisation is to change and support childminders in the way we all need then everyones views are needed.

Well done to everyone (so far) who has completed it.
I will second what Manjay has said - NCMA need to know what we need, think and require - at grassroots level.
I know I have had my problems but to NCMA's credit they have listened and sorted it fast.
NCMA represents us - all of us - NCMA member or not, heck they even support parents!!!!!

Without our input they cannot make things work how we need it too.

Pass it onto your friends who aren't on this forum as well.

I've completed it too. Just wondering if anyone would like to volunteer their response to the question 'what is the biggest opportunity for homebased child carers and how can the NCMA grasp it'?
I have no idea what they mean, and even if I did why would I tell the NCMA how they can grasp the biggest opportunity from us??

I agree. We can keep telling them they are losing members to MM insurance, tell them what is not being offered but they also need specific examples of where people have been let down, so if you have, please please complain formally AND fill in the survey. It would be such a shame if NCMA end up struggling for funds to support us as a profession (with training, the Gov't lobbies etc) because they lose so much funding from membership and insurance fees from minders who decamp to MM:(

I was pretty stumped when it came to the question about "what has NCMA done for you" - in my opinion nothing! As others have said. they do need to know and I wonder if the timing of launching this questionnaire is because they do realise that there is widespread discontent amongst their membership.

It is a good opportunity to give feedback although of course we should not wait for a questionnaire if there is something they need to be told. As others have said, there is clear evidence of them actually listening and trying to make changes so lets hope for some good results out of this one.

Somenone mentioned that they didn't know NCMA were conductiing a questionnaire - I got my "invitation" by email as I am on their distribution list. Do get yourself set up that way from their website to ensure you do not miss out on anything.
