Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find a registered childminder in Bexley?

Ofsted's Find Childcare service lists all registered childminders and providers in Bexley. Check their qualifications, spaces available, and parent reviews. Many independent childminders also advertise via local parent groups and networks across the borough.

How much does childminding cost in Bexley?

Bexley childminders typically charge £5–£8 per hour depending on age group, hours, and experience. Full-time childcare (8am–6pm) costs £250–£350 weekly. Discuss rates directly with your childminder—many offer discounts for siblings or bulk hours.

Do I need HMRC registration to be a childminder in Bexley?

Yes. All childminders caring for children under 8 must register with Ofsted and notify HMRC. You'll need a childminding qualification (Level 3), first aid, and enhanced DBS clearance. Bexley's local authority supports training and registration guidance.

What invoicing and tax records does a childminder need?

Keep invoices for all childminding fees, receipts for expenses (activities, food, supplies), and mileage logs if you transport children. You must file self-assessment returns and, if VAT-registered, maintain VAT records quarterly for HMRC compliance.
