Total newbie questions

Hi,

I am just looking for a little help please. I am just in the process of starting up and am attending the EYFS course ran by my LA. I have 2 main questions:
1 Do I need to register with Companies House if I am a self employed childminder?
2 I have dropped my Health Declaration off with my GP to complete and send to Ofsted and have started my DBS check application. Do I need to do anything with Ofsted to inform them that this info will be received by them, like set up an account or something?

Any help would be great
Thanks :)

You need to register with HMRC as self-employed:
Register for and file your Self Assessment tax return - GOV.UK (https://www.gov.uk/log-in-file-self-assessment-tax-return/register-if-youre-self-employed)

Company's House if for limited companies, so not for us.

Ofsted registration is an online process, I hope someone comes along with more info (I registered years ago so it has changed since)
