Why spend hours creating your own policies when our downloadable pack has done much of the work for you and gives useful guidance on personalising them? It contains 42 resources for use as an independent childminder, and if you work with assistants. It has been updated to include both a new Safer Sleeping Policy, and a Safer Eating policy and forms developed following the tragic death of Oliver Steeping and the family's launch of the Eat Safe campaign.
£20.00The Early Years Foundation Stage states that while childminders do not need to have written policies and procedures, they must be able to explain their policies and procedures to parents, carers and Ofsted inspectors as well as to ensure that any assistants or co-childminders adhere to them. Having written policies and procedures is considered good practice and is the easiest way of passing the information to others.
It is important that you read all the policies and procedures in this pack. If the content of a policy is a true reflection of your childminding practice, you can use it in its original form. If however, it needs some changes to fully meet the procedures you currently have in place, they can easily be amended as they are supplied in Word Format.
In addition you will find information about using logos and strap lines in your childminding business and examples you can adopt.
Using Childminding UK's policies gives me such peace of mind that they include everything needed and I can't calculate how many hours using them has saved me. My children have benefitted because I have had much more time to spend with them. Helen
