Hi yes you have much you can teach children about another country, language, culture etc!

Have a look at this thread about how to register as a childminder

http://www.childmindinghelp.co.uk/forum/starting-childminding-pre-registration-visits/117176-registering-childminder.html

To register there is quite a lot of paperwork and you will require some money to buy a few resources and make your house safe etc. It can take six months or more to complete the course and be inspected so please read through the process to make sure you can do it!

Good luck, childminding is a very rewarding career! :thumbsup:

My sons childminder was a lovely French lady. He went to her from when he was 5mths old up until he was 4yrs. She was fantastic and was my inspiration to become a childminder and one day be as good as I thought she was.
Go for it, I'm sure you have lots to offer :thumbsup:
