|
In order to become registered with Ofsted your nanny needs to meet certain criteria:
- Nanny needs to have public liability insurance
- Nanny needs to have a valid paediatric first-aid certificate
- Nanny needs to confirm that she has the Common Core skills in childcare and that she is suitable to work with children. She does not require any formal qualifications if she has sufficient childcare experience. For further details on the Common Core Skills please refer to the Ofsted website. For details of Core Skills training, contact Family Information Services on tel number: 0800 234 6346. They can direct you to a regional office with details on the timing, location and cost of Core Skills training if required.
- Nanny also needs to have an enhanced CRB check but this will be done as part of the registration process. Please note that even if nanny already has had a CRB check done, another one must be done (unless the previous one was done through Ofsted).
