My daughter is 16 in July, so she has to be police checked, will I then be able to use her as an emergency contact, it makes sense as she is in the same house so will be on hand immediately if an emergency occurs, or is she too young for this at 16.

I would imagine it depends on what sort of 16 year old she is (some like my dd are total drips - she'd be too busy reading a book to watch a baby - while others are so switched on aren't they?!) and whether parents are happy - so long as they sign to say it's ok and she has a crb then I don't see why not!

I'd check with Ofsted first though once her CRB comes through... :D

She is very sensible, in fact she even babysits for one of my mindees at the weekend and she manages fine. I think she would be fine, but hopefully I wont have an emergency, and need to find out.
