A key element of any childcare setting is providing a safe and welcoming environment, and that’s why health and safety in childcare is so important. With the wrong policies and procedures in place, your business will find it that much harder to succeed, and an experienced consultant can make all the difference.
The duty of care is an important responsibility, as looking after children of any age isn’t a decision parents or guardians make lightly. Knowing you have a safe environment, correctly training staff, and plans for a whole range of situations will make everyone feel better – and keep your business compliant with national legislation and requirements.
While every business has to adhere to health and safety policies and procedures, in childcare settings this is even more important. Your business will be caring for vulnerable people and that brings extra concerns and responsibilities. There are very severe consequences for organisations that are not compliant, such as large fines, legal action, and even injury or illness for people under your care.
Health and safety for childcare professionals will ensure they are equipped to handle any situation. This gives them confidence to act when the situation calls, so the right policies, procedures, and resources are important – and we can help put those in place. Identifying gaps in skills and knowledge can lead to training for your staff to help push the business and other employees forward.
Our experts are up-to-date on health and safety legislations in childcare settings across the UK, so you can be sure our recommendations and actions will keep you compliant.
