Hi,

Feeling quite nervous, our LA have funding for this course and I passed the assessment and just had the phone call to give me the go ahead. I start in January but am so nervous about how I will manage. I have 3 young children of my own plus 3 full time mindees and I already struggle to keep on top of everything....,no point to this post just need to get it out there lol.

Arghhhhhhhhhhhh

I'm 80% through so can see the finishing line! I have sometimes found it hard to find the time but I find it somehow. I'm sure you will be fine

I have just been accepted for full funding for my level 3.

I am 50 and have been minding for 20 years but feel it would be good to have with all the changes currently going on.

However, I'm quite worried too as it's a long long long time since I did anything remotely like it.

I understand your apprehension although mine is more a worry I'm too old!

Good luck with yours..

You are never to old to improve your skills and learn
I went to Uni when I was older than you are...loved every minute of it and will one day go back ...possibly to do something very remote from childcare!
