What is a Childmider: A childminder is self-employed and has to be registered with the appropriate Government regulatory bodies. When registered, a childminder is checked for references, training, police record and health, and their home is inspected to make sure it's a safe and suitable environment for children. After registration, a childminder is checked every one to three years to ensure they're continuing to provide a safe and suitable service. All childminders are required to complete a basic registration course, including first aid training. They may also have other childcare qualifications (eg, an NVQ in Early Years Care and Education, a vocational qualification at Level 3). A childminder may look after children of any age from babies to teenagers, but registration regulations only apply to care provided for children under the age of eight.
