Professionals in schools and education settings

香港六合彩资料图库 County Council provide schools and settings with solutions which aim to improve access to learning and raise attainment for children and young people in schools.

Are you interested in becoming a childminder?

Childminding can be an excellent career choice for those who would like to work from home and are interested in working with children. It鈥檚 far more than being a babysitter because childminders are childcare professionals, but it is possible to choose when you work and how you manage your childminding business, and formal qualifications are not needed.

If you are paid to look after children under 8 years of age, for more than 2 hours a day, you need to register with Ofsted or a childminding agency. You can also register voluntarily if you want to.

Before registering you will need to apply for a criminal records check, complete a health declaration and ask your GP to sign it, and complete a paediatric first aid course.  You will also need to show Ofsted or the childminding agency that you can meet the requirements of the Early Years Foundation Stage, which is the statutory framework for those working with the under-fives. 

What we can do to help?

香港六合彩资料图库 County Council do not employ childminders directly however we can provide advice, support and training for those wanting to set up as a childminder. 

In 香港六合彩资料图库, Education Services do this on our behalf. They provide initial information and guidance, support with registration, a variety of training courses and ongoing support once you are registered, including cluster meetings where you could get to know other childminders.
