Hi everyone,
Just thought i'd introduce myself and say hello from sunny Scotland :joker:!
My story so far is I have just finished my Intro course with the SMCA and am now awaiting my completion certificate. Does anyone know how long this is likely to take? Secondly, i'm not sure of my next step (am very much a novice at this) or how long it is likely to take for inspection etc. My situation at the mo is that I am due our second baby in July and plan to take 6 months out for maternity leave and start childminding in January 2013 - do you think I have enough time to get things organised? If I am a member of SCMA will Ofsted automatically be informed of my position or do I get in touch with them re initial inspection (I am presuming it is Ofsted who carry out the inspections here :blush:)?
Any and all information is very kindly welcomed as my baby brain at the mo really isn't helping me move things forward on my own :confused:
Thanks
