The Northern Ireland Childminding Association (NICMA) is a charity and membership organisation, based in Newtownards, that represents childminding in Northern Ireland.[1] It promotes quality home-based childcare and learning for the benefit of children, families and communities in Northern Ireland and its services include a childminding information and vacancy helpline.
NICMA's chair is Barbara Wilson[3] and its chief executive is Bridget Nodder.[1][4]
NICMA is currently running a pilot scheme to address the shortage of childcare places in rural areas. This is funded by the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development's Rural Childcare Programme.[5]
