Providers must ensure that adults looking after children, or having unsupervised access to them, are suitable to do so.

 

I am registered with OFSTED and will display my registration certificate in my hall for you to see. Registration with OFSTED means that I have a ‘Criminal Records Bureau’ check. My husband and my daughter have also both had a CRB check, and may be on the premises occasionally when your child is here and my husband is also registered assistant. I have had a suitable person’s interview at registration and will be inspected regularly by OFSTED.

 

My assistants, Danielle Franklin, Georgina Dovaston and Catherine Meredith-Wilks have got ‘The Disclosure and Barring Service’ (DBS). They have all completed the procedure needed by OFSTED and also my own employment procedure.

 

I have completed a first aid course which includes training in first aid for children and babies (including resuscitation) and an ‘Introduction to Child-minding Practice’ course. I have also taken GSCB Inter-agency Child Protection Course, Certificate, and certificate for ‘Care of the child with asthma, Prevention and management of Allergic Reactions and Protecting yourself and others from the spread of illnesses. I also completed The Bristol Standards Award for the 4th time in October 2016.
