Summer is a great time to review your records and get ready for September.
Our Child Registration Form is comprehensive and covers many compliance areas on one form! It incorporates an "All About Me" section so you can capture as much information as possible in advance to allow you get to know the children attending. It also highlights important information for parents about such topics as sun safety and how to access support for children with additional needs.
Having accurate and up-to-date information on children attending your service is absolutely essential if you are to provide a quality service and be compliant with the Child Care Act 1991 (Early Years Services) Regulations 2016. The CHILD REGISTRATION FORM should be updated at least annually as information often changes.
- Ensure all parts of the form are completed and there are no gaps
- It should contain a start and finish date
- You should have two authorised collectors and emergency contacts for each child
- It should contain a number of permissions/authorisations including authorisation for the administration of anti-febrile medication, outings, photographs to name just a few
- The form should be completed in pen
- Immunisations should contain the dates and, if possible, you should attach the immunisation printout from the doctor or clinic
- Ensure that an Emergency Care Plan is completed for children with allergies or conditions (This is a separate pack)
