What are the benefits of a childminder leasing a minibus?

What are the benefits of a childminder leasing a minibus?

There are approximately 45,000 childminders registered in the UK and with current rules stating that registered childminders can look after up to six children up to the age of eight, transport is an important consideration. From the school run to days out in the holidays, having a vehicle that is wholly complaint is imperative. 

Some childminders choose to use their own vehicle but even a 7-seater SUV will be lacking in space if a childminder has the maximum number of children and all of the bags and equipment that’s needed for even a trip to the park! 

This is where a minibus can be the perfect solution.

MinibusleasingUK have a great range of 7 to 9-seater minibuses that are ideal for this kind of usage. Leasing a new minibus for your child care business will assist you in satisfying any duty of care requirements.

At MinibusLeasingUK we’ve been helping Child Carers get the right minibus for their needs for years. It can be a complex decision. How many seats will you need? What size of minibus? Which manufacturer is best for you? Are there any special needs you need to cater for?

When you first contact us, you will get a dedicated Account Manager who will work with you to discuss your needs, create quotes for you and organise the finance and delivery of your new minibus. From the first contact you will be looked after to ensure you make the right decision.

Can I lease my minibus personally?

Yes you can.  You do not need to take out a lease in a business name, many of our Child Care customers are self-employed which means they need a specific process to follow to get a new minibus. This doesn’t really impact on the kind of minibus you can choose, but it does impact the finance choice you make. You can talk all this through with your dedicated account manager.

Some of the benefits of leasing a minibus are:

  • You can drive our recommended 7-9 seater minibuses on a normal driving licence.
  • You can lease a minibus personally or through your business.
  • A brand new minibus will be specified with all of the latest safety equipment.
  • A brand new minibus will have all of the latest technology making driving it a pleasure. Many minibuses drive just like a car, so you will soon feel right at home behind the wheel.
  • We can organise sign writing on your minibus, so your childminding business brand can grow.
  • Budgeting for your vehicle is easy when leasing. You will have fixed monthly costs and you can choose for your minibus to be fully maintained so there are no ‘surprises’ during your lease term. 
  • We will discuss the best breakdown cover with you also to ensure this important aspect is covered.
