Why Was Mighty Networks Chosen
for the Hub?

Mighty Networks was chosen because it offers the perfect balance of simplicity, privacy, and community-building tools—making it ideal for childminders who want to connect without the overwhelm of traditional social media. Unlike Facebook groups or WhatsApp chats, Mighty Networks allows us to create a calm, focused space where conversations don’t get lost, and everyone feels welcome and heard.

It’s especially well-suited for those who may not be confident with technology: the layout is clean and intuitive, there are no ads or distractions, and everything is organized into easy-to-navigate sections. Members can join discussions, access resources, attend online events, and support one another—all in one place.

​Most importantly, it gives us full control over our community, so we can shape it to reflect the warmth, professionalism, and friendliness that childminders bring to their work every day.
