Childminder Suitability

2.0      Childminder Suitability

  • I offer at least two character references regarding my suitability to care for children and I encourage parent/guardian to verify them.

  • I have Garda Vetting, as do all adults over 18 years living in the household, i.e. my husband and all three of our children.

  • I have Childminding insurance.

  • I have extra car insurance for my childminding (since normal car insurance doesn't cover childminding).

  • I have current Paediatric First Aid and First Aid Responder (FAR) certificates.

  • I have current Child Protection training including Tusla’s e-learning module and I am willing to engage in further Child Protection training.

  • I keep an up to date Curriculum Vitae to show both relevant training and experience with children. I also try to keep the qualifications pages on my website updated to reflect recent trainings I have done.
