Childminder's dog has bitten DD

Absolutely this. What a piece of shit she is.

Personally I would want to know the full circumstances of what happened before making a decision. If children were left alone with dog this would be unforgivable and I would remove my child and report the childminder to relevant authorities. However if the dog was usually docile and friendly and jumped up causing a mark because children and dog were all running around together and got excited this would be different. How old is the child? Did the child approach the dog with food or a toy after being told to not go by it? Surely the OP knew about the dog and had discussed with minder about actions taken in advance to protect the child? Not making any excuses but nobody here knows the full circumstances to be providing advice.

How old is your child and do you know what happened ? I’m not jumping to conclusions . My best friends daughter fractured her dog’s paw when little and the dog bite in pain

Report to the police and ofsted. Find alternative childcare .

Before I did that I would want to know the circumstances, some children can wind dogs up.

Obviously the childminder can't continue with the dog in situ but why on earth would you want to destroy her business ?
If the child minder is otherwise a good person and up until now i felt my child was safe there as long as the dog is away from the house during her working hours why shouldn't she continue.
She also needs to give a totally honest explanation as to what occurred.
It wouldn't be my choice to pick a childminder with dogs in the 1st place and i own dogs, the child is the priority of course in this but i imagine the childminder is feeling pretty awful so plastering it over social media sounds pretty mean to me.

Yikes not safe

You have taken that completely out of context and you know it

Oh that's totally fine. I was just going to suggest letting your cm know your strong feelings on the subject so she's aware.

Conversly lots of families choose me because I do have a dog. They might be out of the house for long hours and unable to have pets but want their children to be around them. That's the great thing about cms, there's so much variety and families can choose the one that suits them and their family.

Report to the police and ofsted (childminder should also have informed ofsted) .
Cancel the contract without notice due to safeguarding issues.
it’s possible you could continue to send your child if the dog was no longer at the setting or pts but I would imagine it’s tricky to continue a working relationship after that.

Basically, that. But as it has happened, you need to change Childminder, there’s every possibility that your kid was sat on its back, pulling its ears and poking it in the eye when it happened. But the Childminder is responsible for ensuring her safety and making sure that does not happen. Which they didn’t.

Not for a long time, thankfully. One with a dog just wouldn't do .

Exactly this.

Too many factors here..

What happened immediately before, during and after?

What dog?

What level of injury? I don't actually count 'in the face' as relevant factor in determining severity of attack, children are often bitten/injured in the face because they are far shorter than adults and their faces significantly closer to a dogs face - however I realise most people interpret a bite to the face as more offensive than a nip to a hand or leg.

What age of child?

What is the normal set up and was this deviated from?

A tiny graze from an airsnapping frightened dog that a child has just fallen over and injured is a very different story from a mauling from a Great Pyr that the CM never actually admitting to having, that was left unsupervised with the children.

Well I wouldn't be sending my child back until the dog was gone. If there are others there I'd want them removed too.

Do you use a childminder?

Depends. A warning nip from a harrassed chihuahua, I'd scold my DD. A chunk out of her nose from a pitbull unwarranted, I'd call the police.

I didn't know this at all.

Wow, the cheek! That's exactly what I'd have done.

I was bitten on the face as a child when visiting a friend, in her garden (about seven years old IIRC). It was totally an accident by an exuberant Labrador that just caught my my face trying to play. No way was it dangerous, but it drew blood. The friend's mum was hugely distressed, but no way was it the dog's fault, and I would never want that sort of incident to result in destruction of the animal.
without knowing the full story from the OP it is not fair to jump to conclusions. A bit more context is required.

It's not the dogs fault that some stupid woman allowed kids to be around her dog. It's the fault of the childminder.

Yes my childminder had a dog in the ‘80s/90s. Absolutely loved that dog.

This isn't some new thing. Childminders have always been able to have pets - but obviously it needs risk assessing and procedures writing and stuff.

Have you always been so nasty ?

We removed our child from a setting when she got a dog with zero notice. No risk assessment in place and no plan to keep the children and dog apart. She charged us for the full notice period as well.
