    Default Applying for a variation with the CSSIW?? Help!! Please!

    Hi all

    I was wondering whether you think I have any chance of getting a variation?

    Basically I registered as a childinder in April and I am pretty much full. I have several part time babies and 2 after school children. I am max on my numbers most days.

    BUT today I have had a call from a lady who desperatly needs after school care for her little boy.

    Her little boy goes to the same school as my little boy and the 2 mindees I have after school. (They are all in the same class.)

    Basically if I were to take on this little boy I would overlap for 1 hour three days a week.

    What are my chances of getting this variation applied?

    Also I need to send in a letter requesting this, how would you word it?

    Thanks, any help greatly appreciated x

    I dont think they will allow it for financial gain unless it was twins or continuity of care??

    I was given a variation but only becaus ethey messed up my certificate.

    There is nothing wrong with asking though and they can only say no. give it a try

    good luck

    We have also been advised not to ask if it is for financial gain. It took me 6 weeks to get one granted for one day for an existing family! In our area you have to complete a variation request form so it may make it quicker if you e mail and ask for one.
