You must:
- make sure your premises and equipment are safe and suitable for childcare.

- have a suitable place to prepare food, if you provide it; any food you provide must be properly prepared, wholesome and nutritious.

The application takes 20 minutes to complete, and you should be registered within 12 weeks.
How do I notify Ofsted of changes?
The best way is to email [email protected] or you can complete the Ofsted notification form (EY3) which you can download from here. It is much better to have evidence that you have informed Ofsted in writing – we have received reports from childminders that phone calls have not been recorded on their notes.
