Hello and Welcome to the REC Childcare website!

Our sector group is made up of REC member agencies who deal primarily with the placement of nannies, au pairs, nursery staff and maternity nurses.

The REC has a strong voice in promoting our members' interests to Government and relevant bodies, through intense legal and lobbying campaigns and through the position it holds on the Council for Awards in Children's Care and Education.

This website is designed to be a useful tool for members, addressing the major concerns of the sector as well as providing an overview of the Group’s activity. If you would like to discuss further any issues, please do not hesitate to contact us.
