The ChildcareLink national website provides childcare and early years information collected from over 170 English and Scottish local authorities, with sign-posting information from the Welsh National Assembly. The website helps you find useful information about the different types of childcare and early education in your local area and helps you to make the right choice for the whole family. The site also contains details of your local Children's Information Service, who can provide additional help and advice with all aspects of childcare and early years.

Provider details are updated on a regular basis. For further information, on their individual registration status in England, please contact your local CIS. All Childcare and Early Education providers in Scotland are regulated by the Care Commission.
