Elevating childcare standards in early years settings 

CareTutor is an eLearning portal launched in 2020 by BVS Training which has over two decades of experience in providing education and training for both the Childcare and Social Care sectors. We aim to provide a go-to destination for high-quality and engaging, cost-effective video-based eLearning for Early Years providers.  

We have developed a comprehensive range of eLearning courses tailored to meet and exceed the diverse needs of childcare organisations and settings. All of our courses are designed to help staff get a clear understanding of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) statutory requirements. The EYFS are mandatory standards that school and childcare providers must meet for the learning, development and care of children from birth to 5. 

We provide interactive and animated scenario-based training suitable for Early Years Settings to make the learning process more engaging and effective for Early Years staff. Research shows that visual learning is more impactful with visuals being processed in the brain a thousand times faster than text. Our courses are more engaging and memorable than the traditional text-based courses, guaranteeing better retention for learners.

We understand high quality childcare comes with high quality childcare training. Our eLearning courses are developed alongside expert consultants such as Sue Asquith who is an Award winning freelance Early Childhood Consultant and author. We constantly ensure that our courses reflect the latest research and best practices in the field, allowing Early Years Staff to provide the highest standard of childcare, while following all the relevant legislation. In addition to this, the CPD Accreditation of our courses guarantees that the Early Years Staff enhance their skills and knowledge in line with the Industry standards. 

Alongside the courses, we offer a comprehensive compliance solution in our eLearning Portal, where you can assign staff their training, track their progress and attain their certificates. We offer a range of reporting support, including our Traffic Light Training Matrix. The matrix offers a streamlined solution to staff compliance challenges, providing a single-page view of all learners’ training status in real-time, notifying admins when staff are due for refreshers. This system simplifies the communication of compliance to Ofsted inspectors, ensuring that childcare settings remain in alignment with regulatory standards.

“My experience has been great, I’ve learned a lot about food safety. I am able to understand the training, as I am visual learner, so pictures or creative presentation would encourage me to learn more whilst reading. Moreover, the knowledge check is helpful for me to test my knowledge.”
