Hi all,
recieved my survey audit from Kent NCMA for availabililty for government places for free childcare for 2year olds.
I have been a registered childcare since August 2011 with an Ofsted report of GOOD. I live in the Canterbury (KENT) region.
I think this is a good idea, especially for childminders, trying to find new clients, but would like to know what else this involves.
From the info I can find, you have to be accredited. What is this??
I did a 6 day training course, with the NMCA last feb 2011. I have a first aid certificate and food and hygiene certificate. I'm an NCMA member and have a database certificate for taking and storing pictures of my mindees.
My info that I have found hasn't really been great. Some people say you need an NVQ Level 3, some don't.
So I think, I need to find out what extra quals I need, and also was thinking about maybe finding out if I can get free for 3 and 4 year olds too.
I know my question hasn't been very clear on this, but not sure on how to put my question forward and what info I need to move ahead.
Where do I get an NVQ qual, as I don't have to time to go to college as working all day mon-fri.
so if anyone can help with these questions, I would be very grateful.
