Paragraph 4 Welfare of the children being cared for

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

In the case of a registered person who is registered as a provider of childcare other than a childminder, at least two persons who have attained the age of 18 are present at all times on the relevant premises while the childcare is being provided.

(2)

Of the two persons required to be present by sub-paragraph (1)—

(a)

at least one such person is either the registered person, the manager or a person who works for the registered person caring for the children for whom the childcare is provided, and

(b)

any other such person is suitable to care for children,

and for the purposes of this sub-paragraph a person is unsuitable to care for children unless the registered person is satisfied that an enhanced criminal record certificate has been obtained in respect of that person.
