Little Ones Training and Education offer short childcare courses to update your skills, improve your knowledge, and make you stand out from the crowd.
Our continued professional development courses (CPD) are suitable for nannies, childminders, maternity nurses and anyone working within the early years sector.
Our courses are accredited by the Open College Network (OCN) London as well as our first aid, and early years courses being OFSTED compliant.
