As a childminder, you are self employed and seen as a professional, looking after children aged from 0 to 16 years old.
By working in your own home and implementing the welfare requirements for the Early Years Foundation Stage, childminders also offer respite care, support for teenage parents, short breaks for disabled children and even mentoring for prospective childminders.
The childminding service within Telford & Wrekin Council provides advice, ensuring all childminders are supported through training, Ofsted inspections and have links with other local support.
They also offer briefing sessions to people wishing to become childminders. This involves supporting them through the registration process, completing home safety checks and providing advice on relevant training that may be necessary.
With the importance of ensuring your home meets the necessary requirements, the registration process is extensive, which is where the Telford & Wrekin Council childminding team can help.
They can perform home safety checks and advise you through your registration with Ofsted, which includes a Disclosure Barring Service check and other questions relating to your current situation.
Starting a childcare business is not easy and as with any business, there are a number of regulations that have to be met. If you think childminding is for you, the Telford & Wrekin Childminding service is designed to help you through the process.
