My friend phoned me today. She has been to see a childminder who is happy to look after her one yr old for 4 days a week. Friend also has a 4 yr old who goes to playgroup. Childminder has agreed to collect her son from playgroup but as this will put her over her numbers she will get a childminder friend to come at lunch time and stay with them for the hour she is over numbers. Both would then be collected at 1pm. She has assured my friend it is OK (she has also assured her Ofsted would give her a variation to cover the situation aswell). I have never heard of this before and it sounds very un OK to me. Does anybody have any views/experience of this? She told my mate Ofsted have told her it is perfectly OK
