I looked into it and did sign up, but them I found orbit which I prefer, however toucan came a close second, if you email them they may upgrade you for a trial period to check it out fully they did for me

I used Toucan Learn for a while after it was recommended to me by a friend who is a nursery teacher. I found it useful if I ever got stuck for ideas for planning, activities are usually simple and explained well and they tell you what aspects it covers too! :)
Ive not had a look since the EYFS changed tho.

Orbit is free and I can't rate it enough, they advertise in the buisness section of website. Www.orbit.so you can also type orbit so into Facebook to read all their reviews, theres nothing like it on the market from what I've seen. Fan for sharing with parents and nurseries and all FREE what more can a childminder ask for lol. Already saving me absolutley tons of time and money from printing.

Its a website full of ideas for activities for different age groups, also tells you what area of learning it covers.
Doesnt matter if you are Nursery, or Childminder everyone needs some inspiration sometimes im sure. :)
