lucky you!!! what local authority are you?

Worcestershire County Council!!! We had to apply and send in a list of what we were looking to purchase relating to EYFS and/or Outdoor equipment. So we both compiled a list and sent it in. I put mostly outdoor toys and June put some outdoor and some ICT. As we are next door we share a lot of things anyway so that is what we plan to do!!!! Just confusing myself trying to sort out what to get from where now!!!:panic:

Thanks Dee, I am sure between us we will manage!!!!! Never thought we would have such a problem spending someone elses money!!:laughing: Though thats part of the problem I look at things and think I'm not spending that much on something (for example we are looking at outdoor waterproofs and I found some nice wellies but £20 :panic: mine used the have the cheapest I could find!!!!!)

I know exactly what you are saying and where you are coming from.........I know you have all that money to spend but £20 on wellies is way over the top isn't it - just seems a bit wasteful!

Us women don't usually have problems spending money do we ;) :laughing:

Just noticed this post and as I am getting into childminding I was just wondering if you could tell me how to see if you are entitled to a grant or anything?

Hi Mini-tots, Im afraid it's a bit of a post code lottery, very un fair I know :(

[Polly2]

You will need to speak to your CDO or EY team
