No Smoking

Smoking, vaping or e cigarettes

It is my policy to ensure that children are in a smoke-free environment whilst in my care.

Procedure (how I put the statement into practice)

I will ensure that:

No-one smokes in any room where the children in my care are present or about to be present, either in my home or in any other setting.

Where reasonably possible I will ensure that no-one smokes in an outside play area when the children in my care are present or about to be present (although this may be difficult, for example at a public park).

If, in exceptional circumstances, the children in my care are expected to use any space that has been used for smoking then I will ensure that there is adequate ventilation to clear the atmosphere.

I will consider Public Health England advice on their use in public places and workplaces https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/use-of-e-cigarettes-in-public-places-and-workplaces
