Updated National Minimum Standards (NMS) for regulated childcare and regulated open access play have been published by the Welsh Government.

NMS for Child minding and Daycare

NMS for Open Access Play

The changes fall into two main categories: those made following a review of the NMS and a public consultation, and routine updates designed to keep the NMS aligned with current policies and legislation.
