    I've just had my inspection and the inspector looked at, contracts, child records, accident book, risk assessments, policies, parents pack, visitors book, certificates, permissions form, safer food/fridge temperature record, planning, observations, daily diaries. I think the only thnig they didn't look at were my accounts, but I understand we only have to share those with the tax man. Good luck with your inspection.

    They'll want to see everything you have witht the exception of your accounts. They aren't interested in the financial side of it.

    This is usually contracts, permissions, accident book, policies, fire evacuation, risk assessments, planning, obs etc!!! Plus anything else you can think of that makes you stand out and proves what a fab CM you are!!
