question are u allowed to look after family children and get paid for it as well as children not related?

i'd presume so they would obs be counted in your numbers and you'd be gettin paid for it :D

hi there, yes you can look after your nephews/neices cousins etc and their parents can get help with childcare costs..... i had my sisters two children for a while and she got 80% of the childcare paid for her by tax credits, you cannot claim for your own children ......

Yes you can!

But I am not sure if Ofsted will count them when they come to inspect... I think you need to be minding children from other families...

Does anyone know for sure? :D

You can mind family children but must have other non family children too.
