Childminder
Business Documents — Essential
A childminder registering the first families needs parent paperwork ready before any child walks through the door — contracts, emergency contacts, medical consent and a plain-English privacy notice, not a whole policy folder. This Essentials kit for a childminder carries five documents: the parent and carer contract, child registration form, emergency contact and collection form, medical consent form, and the GDPR privacy notice. All five arrive as PDFs with a fillable header — your childminding setting name sits at the top, you print or save, and the parent induction pack looks like a childminder Ofsted will recognise. Calmer than redrafting a contract the night before a new starter, cleaner than policies borrowed from another setting. A starter kit for the first paid weeks, before the full policy folder is written.

More for Childminder
Business Documents — Premium
Childminding runs on relationships and on paperwork that Ofsted, parents and the occasional health visitor all want to see on request, not next week when you've had time to find it tucked away in a folder on a shelf. LaunchKit Premium for a childminder covers all 17 business documents as interactive fillable PDF plus editable Word. Parent agreements, allergy and dietary forms, medication consent records and daily diaries fill in on a tablet during the day, and the safeguarding policy, behaviour policy, complaint procedure, fee schedule and incident report rebrand in Word with your childminding business name and Early Years registration number. Attendance logs, accident records, collection authorisation sheets and GDPR notice match in tone and layout across the full set. Two formats from one download - the paperwork side of the childminding day stops being a pile of loose sheets in a bag.
