I am wanting to re-register as i was a childminder in 2012.
I got my level 3 in 2011 along with first aid etc.
I know i need to update my first aid. Does my nvq still stand or does it expire after so long?
I don't want to discover my qualifications are out of date!?!
Please help.
Thank you

All newly registering childminders have to do the introduction to childminding course regardless of what qualifications they already have - you could be a brain surgeon, a qualified nursery teacher, a stay at home mum it doesn't matter, you have to do the course.

You might need a new first aid course - you will need to ask your Local authority.

hth :D

Thanks sarah
I presumed that. But my level 3 etc all still counts?
Thanks

Your Level 3 is still a Level 3 and will always be a qualification you have achieved.
But your LA might still require you to do another course to be registered, give LA a call.
