You have all the leaflets from OFSTED, you've read the book, got the T-shirt, seen the film but it still doesn't make sense! But still it's all a blur! This course will help you to understand your responsibilities as a Childcarer, working from home and/or nursery, playgroup etc.

It's amazing how quickly an infant can reach for an object, and put that object into his mouth. These characteristics make safety a never-ending challenge.

In this 6-hour Childcare Health & Safety programme you'll explore:

  • Great ways to improve your safety when working from home or elsewhere
  • Safety measures for you, your family and friends
  • How to improve safety for all the family through safer systems of work.
  • Ways to ensure your family and friends are better equipped to face the future.

This first level qualification, accredited by the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health (CIEH), is a nationally recognised qualification in all occupational areas.
