Recent Lunch & Learn Sessions

On Wednesday 4th March 2026 we invited Amber Badley from Firebird to talk about GDPR, AI and Cyber Security for Wraparound Childcare.

This practical session covered the essentials of UK GDPR, the safe use of AI tools, and common cyber risks facing childcare settings, with clear, realistic steps to reduce risk, protect children’s information and maintain parents’ trust.

“Really useful.”

“Appreciate Kids Club HQ for organising this.”

“Thank you! Very informative and terrifying in parts.”

What providers are saying about our Lunch & Learn sessions

“Informative, good ideas, excited to recruit.” This was feedback from our session on Different Approaches to Recruitment and Retention with BeMore in November 2025.

And that was just one of many thoughtful comments we received. Providers told us the session was:

• Supportive and helpful
• Full of fresh ideas
• A spark for new thinking
• Packed with practical actions they could take straight away.

What we covered

This session focused on one of the biggest challenges in wraparound care: How to recruit and retain great staff — even in a low‑paid sector.

Together, we explored what motivates today’s workforce, how to attract the right people for your club, ways to build a values‑led culture that keeps staff engaged and practical steps you can take immediately, no matter your size or budget.

The conversation was honest, energising and rooted in the realities of running clubs day‑to‑day. And the feedback shows it resonated.

Why we run Lunch & Learns

At Kids Club HQ, we’re committed to helping providers not just manage their admin, but build strong, confident, values‑led teams. These sessions are part of that mission — a space to learn, reflect and connect with others who care deeply about delivering brilliant experiences for children.
