Hi, can anyone reccommend any good reading? I am in the very early stages of becoming a childminder but figure its never too early to start gaining more knowledge. :)

Have you got an EYFS pack, if not get on to the teachernet site and order yourself one.

watches sarahs head grow bigger ... giggles
i'm sure sarah makes more on her e-books than she does childminding but they are worth investing in (not that I'm trying to help sarahs head grow EVEN bigger)

I thought in Scotland we don't need to do EYFS?
or would you recommend the book anyway?
