Newly Registered Childminders

Once Ofsted has made their registration visit and you have received your Ofsted certificate, please contact the Childminding Services and Development Coordinator to book a support visit and to complete the relevant forms for advertising your new business.

As a relatively new childminder you will soon be due your first Ofsted grading inspection. You can download the documents below to help you prepare.

The childminding co-ordinator will come and visit you to provide support. Please call or email as soon as possible to book an appointment.

  • If you wait until Ofsted calls you, adequate support may not be available or provided

Childcare Directory

Once OFSTED have confirmed that you are an active childminder, your information will appear in our childcare directory. We will send you a link with a username and password so you can log-in and add more information.

For more details see Completing your information on Synergy (PDF, 210KB).
