It depends on where you live Debbie. Where I live we only have to apply for planning permission if we take on an assistant and increase our numbers.

We only have to apply if we have more than 6 under 8s.

Hi Debbie

I also had to fill in a planning form from my local council when I registered with CSSIW. I have been restricted to having 6 minded children, of any age, only - however I can really only fit 4 mindees and my 2 daughters in the car anyway so it's fine by me!
