Would any parents use a new type of childcare, this is instead of childminding or nurseries?

[KatyMac]

It's called "childcare provider on domestic premises"

What do you think?

well, how does it differ from a CM

sounds like a CM with a new description

a nanny????

eh? Tell me about it. What are the advantages to my children and myself?

There will be childminders
there will be nannies
there will be nurseries &
there will be childcare provider on domestic premises

hmm. kind of old country house kind of 'nurse'? passed down through 7 generations of ffforbes-smythes and still holding together the nursery at 106 or more like a housekeeper?

job description?

Xena - advantages to parents.....hmm something else to confuse you?

Advantages to me.....hmm none major rebranding/readvertising meeting new regulations and new rules

It's what I am currently doing (childminding in a group) just renamed

if it is what you are already doing then why would you rebrand it?

I don't want to - but OFSTED are going to prevent me from being a childminder

Wouldn't be so bad if they had given us a name

why are they going to prevent you being a CM?

"The law states that where more than three persons at any time provide or assist in the provision of childcare on domestic premises, then it is no longer childminding.

This means that both the options you have listed in your query would trigger a change in registration from childminder to childcare provider on domestic premises.

If the provision is made up of more than three persons, even if they don't all work together on the same day(s), then you will no longer be acting as a childminder but as childcare on domestic premises.

It would be possible to be registered as a childminder and also be a staff member of an early or later years provision, for example a childminder works in her own home or other domestic premises from Monday to Wednesday and works part-time on Thursday and Friday as an assistant in a nursery class."

Apparently

tbh I am heartbroken & devastated

you are worrying too much about the red tape stuff, just try and do it.

I can't my local council won't allow a business on domestic premises - I have asked

This new classification is a business not childminding

My last day of business will be 31st August

This is just bureaucratic bolleaux. It's also just a label.

What do you want to be?

A childminder

then sort your house out and get it OFSTEDed and do it!

You have been so strong with all your plans over the last few years so do not let them win now!!

fight it!

My street is designated residential - my home is a domestic dwelling - my local authority will not allow a 'Change of use' application to allow me to run a business in my house

I can't do anything about it

This isn't about the new nursery - this is about my existing business

What if you alter the staff situation? Maybe you need fewer employees who work more hours. It sounds harsh, but if you are closed down they aren't going to have a job anyway.

OFSTED has gone mad and no longer has the interest of the children as a priority! Crazy!

I'll be one of them that loses my job

I have ME & can't work full-time

i wish i lived near you km, i've nearly got my nvq finally

Why I'm going out of business

i just think we could come up with a good business idea
