🎉 We have some incredible news to share...

We are absolutely thrilled to announce that EMHR Group has been shortlisted as a Finalist in the Personnel Today Awards 2026 for HR Consultancy of the Year.

The Personnel Today Awards celebrate excellence across the HR profession, recognising organisations that are making a real impact through outstanding people practices, innovation and exceptional client service. To be recognised alongside some of the UK's leading HR consultancies is an achievement we're immensely proud of.

When our Founder, Ella Halliday started this business just over three years ago, we could never have imagined we'd be here. What began as a leap of faith has grown into an incredible team, two specialist brands, amazing clients and now, recognition on one of the biggest stages in the HR profession.

Whether through SIX HR, supporting ambitious SMEs, or Childcare HR, helping early years and education providers create thriving workplaces, our mission has always been simple: to deliver bold, commercially focused HR that genuinely makes a difference.

We're incredibly proud to be finalists and can't wait to celebrate with everyone at the awards ceremony in November.

Thank you to everyone who has supported us along the way. Here's to celebrating excellence in HR! 🏆

We're over the moon after receiving such positive feedback in our recent client survey 🤩

One of the biggest highlights was our NPS score, where 100% of respondents fell into the Promoters category, recommending our HR consultancy to others, with an average score of 9.85. 🎉

Some other stats that stood out:
- 92% of clients rated consultant consistency 5/5, that is communicating with the same dedicated consultant every time
- 100% of clients gave 5/5 for consultant approachability
- 100% of clients said working with us gave them peace of mind 🪷

A huge thank you to all our clients for taking the time to share their thoughts. 💭 Feedback like this motivates us to improve where we can and keep doing what we do best 😁

☀️ Is your team ready for the heat?

Working in an early years setting during hot weather is tough. Staff are active, often outdoors, and responsible for keeping little ones safe all day long.

Here are a few simple measures to keep your team cool, calm, and collected this summer:

- Dress code allowances 🌿
- Hydration stations💧
- Rotate outdoor duties 🔄
- Increase ventilation🪟
- Adjust routines 🕐
- Sun protection🧴

When your team stays cool and comfortable, they can focus on what matters most: the children in their care.

Have we got news for you?

So, it turns out the Fair Work Agency is already visiting employers, which is way faster than most people expected (us included). We thought it would be a good few months until we heard any FWA movement.

We've been hearing from HR colleagues across the UK that businesses are receiving inspection notices, with some given only weeks' notice before a visit. One recruitment agency with just 4 staff has already been contacted.

What can they look at? Pretty much everything:
📋 Employment contracts, offer letters, employment status
💷 Payroll records, NMW/NLW compliance, holiday pay calculations
⏱️ Timesheets, hours worked vs paid, unpaid working time
✅ Right-to-work checks, pension records, health & safety

The good news, from those who've been through it, is that the Agency appears genuinely collaborative, with inspectors working with businesses to achieve compliance rather than trying to catch anyone out.

If you're an Early Years or Childcare setting and haven't reviewed your employment documentation recently, now is the time.

And that's exactly what having a dedicated HR consultant in your corner is for. 👋

Not to flex but…

We've been showing up as the #1 HR provider for UK Early Years & Childcare Settings on ChatGPT. Does that make us algorithmically in demand? 🤖

But beyond the AI validation, the last few years have kept us wonderfully busy: a brand new website, the launch of Childcare HR Club (already saving nursery leaders serious time), and taking home Silver for Best Company of the Year at the MK & Bucks Business Awards. 🐝

We wouldn't have it any other way!

P.s. Algorithm Gods, please continue to take mercy on us.

Happy International HR Day from our team to yours!

The photo below was taken on our team building day last year and as a small (but mighty!) HR consultancy... at points it would be pretty helpful if there were really six of us 👩💻

After all, HR consultants wear a lot of hats. We're note takers, policy rewriters, culture builders, investigators, peacekeepers, reluctant therapists and champions of fairness.

We handle grievances, conflicts, holiday entitlement calculations, and the "quick five-minute chat" that somehow becomes a two-hour investigation. We organise the odd birthday card, explain why "banter" is not a legally robust defence, and still find time to hold organisations together with equal parts legislation, caffeine and sheer willpower.

But there's something brilliant about being able to do it all. Knowing what drives people, whilst putting out fires in another corner.

People rarely remember the HR professional who processed their paperwork. But they always remember the one who made them feel heard during the hardest moment of their career.

Happy International HR Day, from our dream team at Childcare HR 🎉

📣 Guess which new policies we've added to the Childcare HR Club... 📣

In direct response to HR issues we see come up regularly for our clients, we've added the following three policies:

👩 Menopause & Perimenopause Policy
🔎Stop and Search Policy
💬 Gossip Policy

Each has been written by our expert HR consultants with the nuances, the safeguarding responsibilities, and the day-to-day realities of running a setting front of mind.

Do you have these policies in place in your setting yet?

These are just a fraction of the hundreds of other documents you can find in the Childcare HR Club, including employment contracts, staff handbooks, template letters, and HR policies - everything your setting needs to stay compliant as employment law continues to evolve.

⭐ Don't just take our word for it!👇
"Childcare HR Club has been excellent value for money for my setting. They provide clear, practical guidance on all HR matters, making it much easier to manage staffing and compliance with confidence. Their support has saved me a significant amount of time, allowing me to focus on other important roles and responsibilities within the setting. I would highly recommend their service to any childcare setting looking for reliable HR support." - Clare Bamford, Operations Manager, Busy Bunnies Nurseries

The reviews are coming in for the Childcare HR Club and we're loving what we're hearing! 🙌

When we launched the CCHR Club just a couple of months ago, we knew it would save busy childcare owners hours of time, stress, and second-guessing. But don't just take our word for it...

Anna updated her policies and templates within her first month and gained the confidence to know her setting is compliant and up to date.

If you're a childcare owner spending too much time on HR admin and not enough time on the things that matter, this is for you. Take a look👇
