If you are a childminder and provide no more than the following levels of food service as part of your normal business, you are not required to register:

  • provision of mains drinking water
  • provision of crockery and cutlery for use by children to eat their own packed lunches
  • provision of chilled storage for packed lunches that belong to the children
  • occasional assistance to children with cutting up their own food in response to individual need rather than an established service
  • occasional provision of food that is not part of the normal service such as a cake to celebrate a child's birthday or provision of food where a parent/guardian has been delayed
  • operating in the child's own home and serving food that belongs to the child's parent/guardian
