Hi- I'm relatively new to the forum- I've been lurking whilst thinking about becoming a childminder and throughout my course and I am all official and registered now! I have several questions- apologies if they have already been done to death!!
Firstly I've no idea how to change my profile to registered instead of pre-reg- it is saying I don't have permission to edit it- is this because I haven't posted enough?
Secondly, I was told that I can't advertise until I have my public liability insurance. Surely this can't be right- don't I just need it for when I actually start minding? It would be wasteful to pay for months not used otherwise?
Lastly (for now!) which are the best sites to advertise on- I know netmums and the childcare one along with my local Family Information service- any others?
Thanks in advance!!:)
