Hi there!
I've received a form to request my mum as an assistant and getting a bit confused by some of the questions, so was wondering if anyone would be able to help me please? I've tried contacting Ofsted today but I was on hold for about 20 minutes...
Space:
'Taking into account usable indoor space requirements please confirm the total space to provide care in square metres'.
It says to look at page 35 of the statutory framework but the version I have only goes up to page 29 :S
Also, it asks me to complete a table of the number of children I wish to care for in each age range *Under 1 years, birth to fifth birthday, and total of children under 8). The question is when working alone and how many with 1 assistant. I don't know whether they mean per day or per week?
Any help would be appreciated as I'd like to get the form sent of as soon as possible. At the moment I have 4 kids *2x 4 year old, 1x 9 year old and 1x 10 year old* and I am currently advertising everywhere I can *people are saying they want me but mostly times when I have school runs, this is where my mum would come in handy*
