[estrelas]

This hadn't even occured to me yet :eek:

I need one don't i?

How did you come up with yours?
How do i find some original?

I don't think you need an official name, if you don't wan't one? I dont have a business name as such, I just use my actual name on my advertising etc.

My posters say:

Becky Iredale
Registered Childminder

And I use "Becky Iredale Childcare" for my business name if I need to put something down on a form.

I thought that people in my local area would know me by my name already, so I thought I'd go with that to start with.

I had this dilemma too and posted a thread asking for advice ( Whats your name and why??) Still havn't come up with anything original yet and am thinking I will do the same as the others here ie. use my name and the childminding or childminding service.

You don't have to have a business name at all, lots of childminders don't. It's just a matter of your own personal choice.

I didn't have a name for years I choose one when I did my Quality Standared Accreditation. They asked us to design a brouchure about our business and suggested we used a name. I'm not called ricky its where I live!!!!:clapping: :clapping:

I need one don't i? no, its completely up to you... to ofsted and inland rev your be known by your name ..or numbers lol (ref numbers i mean) but its nice to have one

How did you come up with yours? my name and a loss i went thru

How do i find some original?

go by your name (first or surname or even midddle) street name, house name, area born, something that rhmes with any of these or just goes together
