The premises have been passed meeting the national standards for childminding outlined by Ofsted. It is regularly reviewed, updated and practiced safely.
As a registered childminder, I am legally required to have a valid first-aid certificate. I can administer basic first-aid treatment, and my first-aid box is clearly labeled and easily accessible. It is stored on a shelf in my main room. Parent contact numbers are with the first-aid box.
I require written permission from parents to get emergency treatment for their child if it is needed.
Procedure
Whenever there is an accident: • First, I will reassure the injured child while making sure that the other children in my care are safe. This may mean strapping a baby in a buggy or sitting an older child somewhere safe where they can be seen.
