Hello All!
I am a newbie to this site and I am currently going through the registration process. I have had my registration visit last Friday and was deemed suitable to be a childminder (Phew!!) subject to checks. Please can anyone inform me when I can start advertising? I understand that if you act as a childminder and not be registered that it is illegal. However, as I have now been through the registration visit and will not act as a childminder until all the checks are in place, I have my insurance, register as a Food Handler and with Data Protection etc. and have in my hand the most precious Certificate of Registration. Can anyone please inform me if I would be acting illegally if I started to advertise. All information gratefully received.
Equally if anyone had any ideas on how the advertising of their childminding business worked best, I would be delighted to hear from you.
Thank you in advance.
P.S. I honestly have to say this is a great website! Very informative. This is my first post so very excited!:clapping:
