Hi

I have an A4 binder and I can bind A4 and any size smaller, I buy off the internet A4 combs (different thicknesses) and you can cut to any size and bind.

I just it for my learning journals, attendence register, visitors book, the children make their own stories and books and we bid those, etc. . . . couldnt imagine being without it.

When I was made redundant and decided to go into childminding, I luckily acquired mine free from the company so not sure on price sorry.

But when you buy the combs, I would recommend a few different sizes as I have used thin ones for a mindee I only have 2 mornings a week as opposed to using a thicker one for a child I have every day of the week, all day.

Look on line but a safe option would be Staples.

I think it is as important to have a binder as it is to have a laminator in childminding :D
