Hi
I'm new to the forum, so hi! and hope you can help.
I have a new mindee starting in a few weeks. However the dates we suggested I'll have four under fives (ranging in age 16 months - 4 year) for an hour for school drop off on one day, and another days for 2 hours at school pick up. I won't have any more than 6 children in total with the school picks up.
Do I:
1. Go back to the new mindee parents and make alternative arrangements for those days?
2. Do a risk assessment involving all parents whose children will be in my care that day so they are aware of the changes in ratios? Demonstrating to them how I'll keep all children safe, i.e. using buggies, reins etc.
I'd appreciate any guidance you can give.
Thanks
