Hello,
Am currently putting together application for new mindees so I would have 4 under 5, including 2 of my own. The other 2 are brothers, the mother cannot find any minder in the area with one space for the hours she wants, other than me, let alone two!
I know on the form it says continuity of care is for siblings of or extending hours currently minded children only, but these boys previous c/m has given it up. These and my own would be the only mindees during these hours.
So I am applying as parents really want me to, and I am happy and comfortable having 4 under 5...are there specific areas I should really highlight/mention to Ofsted? Has anyone had experience of this for new mindees, is it likely to be a yes?
Thanks!
