The motion

That the Parliament congratulates Sharon and Peter Stoneman for being graded "excellent" by the Care Inspectorate for their childminding service; notes that their childminding service, Wellie Boots, was one of two childcare providers in Scotland to receive the highest grading in November 2023; understands that Wellie Boots has been run from their home for 11 years and prioritises the children’s inquisitive learning process, allowing children to explore ideas that interest them, rather than following a pre-made plan; applauds Sharon and Peter’s commitment to allowing children to engage with the world around them through time spent outdoors in Aberdeenshire; commends their efforts to involve parents in tailoring their childminding services to the needs and interests of each child, and wishes them well as childcare providers.
