If im not minding a while

[devoncm]

do i still need to have insurance?
Im thinking about getting my kitchen done before i have more mindees, i am still reg (renewal came around) my insurance is also up for renewal, but if im not minding should i still pay out for insurance? obviously if i do get enquiries and contracts signed before my kitchen done i will get insurance- i dont want to pay out when i dont plan on having children

If you are not minding then no, you don't need insurance.

The only thing to remember is that if Ofsted inspect you and you are not insured, you will be graded unsatisfactory for keeping children safe.

Hope this helps :D

I believe with NCMA you can get insurance but arrange for it to commence at a later date.
