My developmental worker said that Ofsted are quite hot on inspecting new childminders in my area, even if they have no children and also within 3 months of being registered!
She said i could not use my own children but could "borrow" a child. All i can think of is a child from our pre-school, but would i be allowed to have my own child at home as well?
I've had one girl over for a few playdates and she knows me but she will be very confused if my own daughter was not there as well?
I know they may just come round to check my paperwork and check i know all the welfare and do the risk assesments but i would like to show what its like for kids in my home :)
