is that different from being a nanny or a childminder then?

Yes it is where 4 or more people work together (previously as childminders)

Currently if only 3 people work together they can be childminders but 4 must be "Childcare on Domestic Premises"

Do you mean care for over 8's?

Do the regs differ much from being a nursery?
Even if Ofsted don't call it a nursery, local town planning might.

It is different to a nursery......but I am not sure how

Isn't this about what you covered before EYFS went live? The issue with there being more than 3 people providing childcare at the same time?
Has NCMA got Ofsted to agree that it is more than 3 people at the same time rather than more than 3 people registered to provide care on the premises?

Three at the same time is fine - so I'm OK

Someone has asked me if it would be viable for them & I am trying to find stuff out for them

There is the Ofsted Factsheet Childcare on Domestic Premises
Not sure how it differs from the NCMA one you linked to.

It's identical

They don't give info out very freely do they?
