We have teamed up
with one of the UK leading mobile crèche service operators to
compliment our event management package. You are
probably aware that a fully serviced crèche service can
facilitate full attendance from your delegates.
Conferences require
a comprehensive service to meet the needs of:
-
space limitation
-
varying numbers
of children
-
equipment and
activities, appropriate for age,
-
prolonged
attendance
-
support
facilities for parents
-
crèche
management that reduces an organiser's workload.
A dedicated crèche
service doesn't simply avoid disenfranchising your group
members. It promotes the values of the organisation and can even
reflect the spirit of the conference.
Our
carefully selected provider, OFSTED Registered, has provided quality
childcare at small and large conferences for 14 years. Their access
and egress is informed and considerate of the venue’s obligations.
Risks
are assessed and Methods Statements available.
Operate in partnership with venue staff ensures full regulatory
compliance and a quality childcare provision.
Child
carers are Ofsted Registered and vetted through CRIB.

-
An Ofsted form

Letter of Exemption obtained where full Ofsted Registration
has not already taken place,

to you and the venue together with a copy of our insurance
certificate. (A legal requirement, which validates the terms
of insurance).

Risk assessments
and method statements are sent to venues as required.

All venues are
asked to confirm their compliance with health and safety
regulations for appliances, fire equipment, food hygiene,
