cost?

[babymimi]

Hi
I have my childminding information evening tonight. I did teh cache course to become a childminder 2 years ago but decided against it, but now i have decided i wanna do it again. Everything has changed so much since then, so i am starting from scratch.

Someone on another thread mentioned course fees....does it cost now then? When i did it 2 years ago it was free :panic:
Alos, how many training sessions do you have to do?

I know i will find out all tonight but im impatient, lol.
Thanks
Lisa

Hi Lisa, :)

The cost varies from county to county. I paid £50 and that included my EY First Aid course, Unit 1 Diploma in Home-based Childcare, quality practice workshop and an NCMA Start Up Kit.

The First Aid was over 2 saturdays [or I could have done it over 4 evenings], DHC one evening a week for 6 weeks and the quality practice workshop is next Thursday evening.

Good luck for tonight.

Hiya, my icp and first aid are free thankfully :thumbsup:

I had to pay alot for my health form though which wasnt so nice :mad:

All my training has been free, the only thing I've paid for so far is my helth decleration which was £30.

I had to pay for my first aid, my training was free as I'm on a high band of tax credits, I also had to pay for my health declaration from the GP. I then got the fees back when I was registered from a start up grant.
