What do we need to do next?
A step-by-step guide to registration:
- First nanny needs to ensure that she meets the criteria for registrationEnsure 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 CRB check is done as part of the Post Office Verify system. Nanny needs to bring proof of her ID along with the £8 admin fee when she goes to have it done. 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 Sally Thatcher at the Ofsted Childcare Approval scheme development team on 0207 273 1180.
