what qualifications if any do you need to own a day nursery for children?

Answer 1

As owner of a day children's nursery you will be required to register with OFSTED.

This registration should be displayed together with the current certificate of insurance.

Plus 50% of staff employed must hold a relevant childcare NVQ level 2 or equivalent certificate.

One member of staff must hold First Aid certificate.

All supervisors must have NVQ level 3 in childcare.

Answer 2

I closed my in-home childcare after 5 years to return to college. (I recently graduated with a Bachelors in Education.) The process is fairly easy. The biggest question however, is where do you live. This will determine the rules for your childcare. If located in the US, contact your local Department of children services. Some states call it DSHS, others DSS, etc. Also look in your phone book for a community organization called "Childcare Resouce and Referral". This organization will help with becoming certified and obtaining clients.

Check out the Washington state DSHS site for an outline: http://www1.dshs.wa.gov/esa/dccel/new_licensing_page.shtml

In the state of Texas there is a law concerning how many children you can "babysit" at you own home. If you open a nursery, then you have to have a certain amount of workers per group of children.
