This course is for Nannies and Au Pairs who do not need to register. Childminders,

nursery workers and child workers still need the 2 day 12 hour course to meet their

requirements. If you are looking at also entering other childcare sectors, then the full

2 day or our blended Paediatric course would be best.

This one day course meets the needs of the voluntary part of the Ofsted Childcare Register for

Nannies and Au Pairs.
