Description

Child Minding

This is where childminders come in to help alleviate these needs in a safe environment.

People who choose to become childminders often benefit from gaining experience in a childcare-related field, determine their hours in most cases and help their community. While a childminder is not a nursery professional, they can take care of children at short notice and during holidays.

This course will go into detail on what a childminder is, the different childcare alternatives available and how they differ from childminding.

We begin by explaining the good qualities of a childminder, responsibilities and requirements.

Next, we review the benefits of childminding.

Finally, we provide some steps you can take to get you started towards your childminding aspirations and tips to help you determine if childminding is the right career for you.
You Will Learn:

About different types of childcare providers
The differences between childminders, nannies, babysitters and childcare centres
What responsibilities and regulations you will need to adhere to
Tips and advice to help you determine if childminding is right for you

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
