[FONT="Franklin Gothic Medium"]On my certificate it says that I may care for no more than 2 children under 8 years old.
I assumed that this was because I have two children of my own. However, my son is turning 8 in a couple of weeks and Ofsted have totally confused me. They mentioned that they might not increase my numbers as there might be anotehr reason why I can only care for 2 children???? (such as space). She then said because I'm newly registered they would have only given 2 and this would change when I was properly 'visited' (inspection?).
She then spoke to her manager who said I need to complete a variation form, and they will consider the change within 4 weeks.
Does anyone have any experience of this? I kinda do not know what i'm doing.
The reason that I've asked is that I have three enquiries:
girl aged 3 (to have between 0830 and 3.30pm) 5 days a week.
girl aged 7 (to have breakfast/after school) - probably from mid-September
boy aged 6 (to have breakfast/after school)
My son turns 8 on 18th September, and my daughter turns 4 on 1st Feb 2011.
Sorry for rambling lol
