Registration is quick and easy, the only thing that sometimes delays the process is the CRB check. Depending on how many different addresses the nanny has had in the last 5 years it can in some cases take several months for the CRB check to clear.
A step-by-step guide to registration:
- First nanny needs to ensure that she meets the criteria for registration. Ensure that the first aid certficate is up-to-date and that public liability insurance is in place before starting registration procedures.
- The registration process is done entirely online. There is no need for nanny to take any time off for an interview and there isn't even any need for a wet signature. To register simply go to the Ofsted website.
- The Enhanced CRB check is undertaken as part of the Ofsted registration process. Verification of the CRB application can be completed by a professional known to the applicant. Please note that even if nanny already has a CRB check another one will need to be done as part of the registration process.
- If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact the Ofsted helpline on 0300 123 1231.
