Want to help shape the future of SCMA and childminding in Scotland? The deadline for nominations is fast approaching, and we’re looking for
YOU to join team of Elected Members and take your place on our Board.
SCMA is the only organisation in Scotland dedicated to childminders. Providing our 4,500 members with a ‘voice for childminding’ we look to our Elected Members, who represent childminders from across Scotland and make decisions for SCMA.
As a childminder, you already have the knowledge and practical experience of the profession and we want you to bring your voice to the table. It is our Elected Members, the knowledge and experience they have that has helped SCMA towards the professional status it holds today.
Our SCMA Elected Members freely donate their time, ideas and energy to support the Scottish Executive Board. It is important that the Board reflects the geographical spread and diversity of our membership, and we are currently looking for nominations from SCMA members to stand as an Elected Member for SCMA.
