Nursery and childcare cleaning demands the highest hygiene and vetting standards because it protects the youngest children. OPTUSGLEAN UK LTD provides nationwide, fully insured cleaning for nurseries, pre-schools and childcare settings — playrooms, sleep rooms, nappy-change areas, toilets and kitchens — delivered by PAYE staff with Enhanced DBS (barred-list) checks on fixed monthly pricing, out of hours.
Why nurseries require Enhanced DBS with barred-list checks
Cleaning a nursery brings staff into settings used for regulated activity with children, so operatives generally require an Enhanced DBS check with a Children's Barred List check (gov.uk). In Scotland this is PVG via Disclosure Scotland; in Northern Ireland an Enhanced AccessNI check. Every OptusGlean operative in a childcare setting is DBS-checked (Disclosure Scotland / AccessNI in Scotland and Northern Ireland) to the required level — see our DBS checks for cleaners guide.
How do you keep nursery hygiene safe for children?
Young children put hands and toys in their mouths, so hygiene is intensive and product-safe: touchpoints, low-level surfaces, toilets, nappy-change areas and floors are cleaned with COSHH-assessed products chosen for safe use around children, with safety data sheets used to build proper risk assessments (HSE COSHH). BICSc colour coding keeps sanitary, general, food and change areas strictly separated (BICSc).
Out-of-hours cleaning around opening times
Nurseries open early, so we clean out of hours — after close or before opening — so the setting is fresh for the day with no disruption to children or staff. Lone early/late cleaners are managed to HSE lone-working guidance (HSE INDG73).
Why OptusGlean for nursery groups?
Nursery chains get one national contract, one fixed monthly price and the same vetted, high-hygiene standard at every setting. See our education cleaning sector page.
