For all other inspections (childminders, nannies and childcare on non-domestic premises that does not operate regularly), we give no more than five days’ notice. We can also inspect without notice.

Requires improvement - We usually re-inspect all childminders, pre-school provision and nursery provision within 12 months of the latest inspection.

We will usually only inspect a provider on the Childcare Register once in any 12-month period unless we receive concerns.
