2 year progress check-Health Visitor impressed!!

[lisa1968]

My 2.5 year old mindee had his 2 year check today. I racked my brains trying to find a quick,easy way to do a progress check.
Over the past few months,I've "charted" his progress using the Development Matters book-i made my own version of it,then,as he reached each milestone,I highlighted it and wrote a very brief note next to it showing what he'd done to back it up.
I gave a copy of this to his Mum to pass on-and when she came back,she said that the HV was so impressed,she asked if she could keep it-she hardly even bothered to look at what the Mum had put on her form!
So pleased-I've read lots of posts about HV's not even looking at the progress checks that CM's had,so I was a bit worried that my work would be for nothing!
Off to polish my halo.......

My twins had theirs last month and the HV wrote in their red books about the progress check I had did and how it was informative and how I knew the children etc - thats been photocopied for Ofsted :-)

Well done hun x

Heard so many negative comments about Health Visitors and the 2 Year Progress Checks, it is lovely to hear something positive and realise there are some Health Visitors that appreciate and take them seriously.
