Running a creche?

Question

does anyone know what qualifications are needed to run a creche/ nursery school or kids gym?

Answer 1

It depends on if you are managing it or not. The manager needs to have a level 3 qualification and a minimum of two years experience. Not too sure about the kids gym though, if you get in touch with OFSTED they will let you know what their requirements are

Answer 2

Diploma in childcare and a Criminal Record Check.

Answer 3

I have no idea, but maybe it would be useful to you, to have a chat with a careers advisor, or maybe find a nursery/creche that you know, and talk to the people who run it, because not only would they be able to tell you the qualifications you would need, but couold also give you any hints and tips.

Good luck!

Answer 4

nvq level 3 is needed to run  a creche or a nusery i have been looking for the information and i got the answer from a a governemental organisation .

i am doing nvq level 2 at the moment myself then i have to get experience as nvq level 3 you cannot do it without working in the field .

to start nvq level 2 you do not need experience and can even do distance learning like it is my case .

for the kids gym i am not sure .if you can use the same qualifications as it  involves mainly pe.but one thing is sure nvq level 2 only allow to work under supervision in a setting while nvq level 3 gives you the right and authority to work with no supervision with children.so logically it should allow you to run a kids gym but this need confirmation just in case

good luck
