Nappy changing for early learning and childcare settings (excluding childminders)

This updated guidance offers a practical guide on aspects of nappy changing while balancing the need to reduce the risk of infection for children, staff and anyone accessing the service.

All early learning and childcare building-based settings (excluding childminders) that care for children who use nappies must have appropriate changing facilities, including a safe, clean environment with appropriate equipment. Children's privacy, dignity and, where appropriate independence, must be respected and always promoted.
