    If you are becoming a home based child carer then you must be aware of the current legislation and the role in which regulatory bodies play. If you wish to register for becoming a childminder in Northern Ireland you must do so through your local Health and Social Services Trust. A childminder must by law register with the local Health and Social Services Trust and the purpose of registration is to protect children, to provide reassurance to parents using childcare and to ensure that childminding services meet acceptable standards. To achieve registration a childminder is required to comply with standards of safety, equipment, numbers of children etc. The home environment is checked to ensure that it meets the standards required and that it is suitable to care for children. References and health checks are required as are criminal record checks on all individuals in the household over the age of 10. The Children (NI) Order 1995 states that registration should be completed within three months of receipt of the completed application form. Following on from registration, childminders are inspected annually by the Health and Social Services Trust. NICMA recognise that childminding is a professional day care service and as such, the registration process is the first step towards the provision of quality childminding. The Children (NI) Order 1995 states that a registered childminder is, "a person who looks after 1 or more children under the age of 12, for more than 2 hours per day, on domestic premises, for reward". Registered Childminders are self-employed day care providers who work in their own home to provide care and education for other people’s children within a family setting. Unlike nannies and au pairs, they are inspected and registered by Social Services on a regular basis. Registered childminders may be registered to care for up to 6 children between the ages of 0 - 12 years of age (including their own children) and only registered…
