You need to follow all the updated legislation, this came as an email from the Forum to me yesterday, not sure if links will work but you can find links in the tabs at the top or just search for them, Ofsted site has a document of the changes that are in the 2014 EYFS:

All childminders need to be aware of the following changes to legislation from 1st September 2014:
