are you saying that you dont have the available spaces for both twins? Is that why you need a variation? Or is it because they will both be under 1?

You will need to show how you will look after 2 under 1's - equipment, routines etc. You'll also need to give info on any other under 8s you will have at the same time (including your own).

I know a few childminders who have had variations for twins under 1. They've never had any problem getting the variation as it is obviously for continuity of care.

my friend also a minder applied for this but got denied even after appeal, but this was due to having other children under 5 on 2 days so you should be fine.

i got one for my friends twins when i also had my 2yo. i had looked after them lots of times (for free!) so made sure i put that in. you need to say how you will get around, how you can feed them all etc. i had no prob even as a brand new minder

You will be fine - just right in ASAP as they are swamped
