Having a clear and robust childminding contract and policies is vital to the smooth running of any childminding business and can help prevent unwanted situations and misunderstandings between families and childminders. It is a statutory requirement to have both Safeguarding and Complaint policies and to share these with parents. If you are registered on the Childcare Register these must be in a written format.
