Necessary paperwork? Some1 with a bit of time??

[parker1313]

Wondered if anyone has the time to send me a list if all the policies etc a childminder has to have?
I know of the following :- equal opportunities, 999call permission, contact form, complaints.
Anymore would b a real help.
I need to re-register as quickly as possible. Want to get all the paperwork done asap so all I then need is crb,docs health declaration etc etc.
Very cheeky I know but if anyone has any forms they could email that would b fantastic. 80))

When you say ASAP, how soon do you need to register? I'd allow a MIN of 3 months, many take 6 months these days I'm afraid to say.

And wouldn't you need to go on all the courses again? I'm pretty sure you do.

Thankyou so much for all that.
Yes I need to do everything again unfortunately.
I am predicting 3ish months. I just want to be as ready as possible&cover everything I can asap.
There really is alot isn't there.
Any poss you could tell me which r compulsory ?

Compulsory are:
Complaints procedure, Lost child policy, Permission for emergency medical treatment and transport to hospital - including permission for mindees to be left with emergency contact.

I think that's it for compulsory, though I have a niggling doubt that there might be one more....anyone?

They don't check til your first inspection anyway, so plenty of time to get sorted.

I think looneytunes list is exceptional, I have about 15 policies altogether though I know people with less - lots can be combined though I bet its fun to make ofsted read that lot!

PS 3 months is very ambitious, took me from may to november for crbs etc sorry to be a downer
