Some parents are able to call on grandparents and other relatives or friends to look after their children. This often works very well, but you should think about this kind of childcare as carefully as you would about a registered facility. If anyone other than a close family member looks after your child regularly in their own home in return for money or reward, they must register as a childminder with the CSIW.
