A Guide for Parents and Carers

Ouch Pouch Childcare Limited is registered as childcare provider with ‘Ofsted’ and work under the guidance of the ‘National Standards for Out-of-School Care’. Our staff to child ratio is 1 to 8 for children under 8 years of age. Additional staff members will be involved in more demanding activities and outings. Each session will be staffed by either the director or deputy or both and enough play workers to meet the correct ratio’s of care. We encourage volunteers and students within the club who will be seen as extra to the staff ratio’s and are never left in a position of responsibility.

We are committed to providing a First Class service for EVERY Child, Young Person and Parent / Carer.

We intend to have a very happy, positive club where youngsters can choose their own activity with no influence from others, unless we are specifically asked to do otherwise. This is to show Mutual Trust and Undertanding in their quest to Grow and be Independant.
