EYFS: Information about Havering Childminders

Following requests from parents and carers, this blog provides information about local childminders.

Parents are free to use the childcare they feel is best for the needs of their family.  Parents must make their own enquiries about a provider before they use them.  The information provided below gives an overview of provider types.

Childminders

• Childminders on the Childcare Register provide care for one or more children aged between three months and eight year olds, or from eight years old to 18 years old, in a home environment - usually their own.

• Registered childminders are usually self-employed but can also work as part of a Childminder Agency. 

• All registered childminders are inspected by Ofsted.

• Childminders care for up to six children under the age of eight, including their own, but only three of them can be under five.

• Childminders who want to work in the child’s home may be added to the Ofsted voluntary register and are classed as home Childcarers. To register call Ofsted on 0300 123 1231

Funded early education childcare places - Eligible childminders in Havering can deliver early education and childcare places to two, three and four year olds for both the universal and extended entitlements.

Wellbeing Wednesday

Reception, on Wellbeing Wednesday you can take a break from your computers and devices and take part in lots of fun, different activities outside or around your home.

This afternoon…

Play the Keep it Moving Game and get ready to have some fun while getting active! You can play it inside or outside your home. Other members of your family can join in and play alongside you. You can roll a dice or use an online: Dice Roller. Don’t forget to let us know who the winner was and send us any photos of you and your family playing the game to us via Evidence Me or Email.

 

 

 

You could also go for a walk in your local area. What did you notice on your walk? Did you see any animals or notice any changes to any of the trees or wildlife?

You may want to help your family with any chores around the house. You could tidy your room or help with folding clothes away or washing up.
