    Default Re-registering

    Hi,

    I have a previous registration with Ofsted as a childminder on the Early Years Register. I resigned due to various issues around 3 years ago and have been working for a housing association since. I have decided that I really would like to go back into childcare however, I will only be registering on the Childcare Register to provide care to over 5's (before, after school, holidays etc) as mine are older now and I feel I will be able to cater for this age group better.

    My question is will the course I did with the Local Authority to enable me to be a childminder still cover me now or will I need to go through the whole thing again?

    Any help is appreciated. I have called Ofsted and to be honest they didn't answer my question!

    The Childcare Register requirements are here - annex C - https://www.gov.uk/government/upload...g_handbook.pdf

    To register on the Chidlcare register you need first aid, safeguarding and qualifications in the 'common core' which you will have if you have done a qualification previously.

    You then need to apply for your dbs check - Ofsted DBS Application - Security Watchdog - Step One

    Sign the received DBS to the update service - you only have 19 days from printing!!

    Then apply through the Ey2 form on the govt gateway.

    I hope that helps
