Hi all,
Need to pick your brains.
I'm currently full on a wednesday, 1 space mon/tues/thurs, 2 spaces on friday.
I have a lady coming on Friday to sign contracts etc, her son will be coming weds/thurs/fri. (but dont worry not on a weds for the first month until I can hopefully get my variation!!!!!)
Had a call this am from a lady whose coming tomorrow, she's looking for care on a mon/tues/weds.
I'm sure I have a snowballs chance in h*ll to get a variation to have 2 more under 5's on a weds, which would bring my total upto 5 including my dd.
BUT - if I got an assistant for that day, would it be allowed??
And where would I get one - advertise locally, ask at the nursery if any of their girls would help me (the bonus with that being they'll already be 1st aid & crb checked....)
The only other alternative is that I ask a mindee's mum if they could swap to a friday, which would mean I'd only need a variation for 1 more child on a Wednesday. Have you ever asked a mindee to swap days?? It's the mum I get on really well with, but tbh not sure how she'd respond!
HELP!!!!!!
