    I have recently found out about some additional criteria regarding the treatment of child care charges from November 2009 – SI 2009 No1848 amendment to Reg 28/8. Previously I was under the impression that a childcare provider should be registered, but the amendment has added that we can accept ‘a person who is not a relative of the child wholly or mainly in the child’s home’. Does this mean that the child care provider could be anyone (and with no qualifications or certificates) as long as they are not a relative? Does anyone remember seeing this in a circular? The HB Guidance Manual does not appear to have been updated to include the amendments.

    I think you are referring to A17/2009, this pointed out the SI you have quoted and raised the issue of regs that needed to change due to the amendment to the childrens act in 2006.

    You may find this thread of interest.
