Dear childminders,
I am new. I had a parent visit yesterday my 1st after over half a year being registered. to be honest i havn't really advertised because of lack of conidence. i have 5 kids of my own and small property!!
My parent came and chatted, had a look around and said she would perhaps leave her child for a trial period?? do i fully charge for that and comlete the ncma contract form and all of the rest???
Most importantly what docs/signatures are absolutely necessary for a new parent, and what is recommended but not necessary?
Also are there any other minders with small properties? I have a large play area downstairs but it is the storage and organiation of activities i worry about. I reeeeally want to childmind well, not for the money but to help my 2yr old with special needs get the benefits of the EYFS as i turned down my place for an EYprofessional course to care for him.
Sorry about the life story but i would love to get advice and support about this as i really feel inadequate.:ohdear:
