....other than the SEF

What do I actually need in printed out form? I have all of my Policies and Procedures on the computer and do all diaries on the computer, well, in fact everything on the computer.

Should I print out everything?

Do they look at registers etc.

What other paperwork is useful.

With risk assesments what should I do? I am a newly registered childminder and have done a RA for the house and garden. What else should I have ready for them!

Hiya, I would tell Ofsted that she is welcome to look at your on line paperwork and direct her to it.
I would also have ready all your other files, RA for your home, outings, school runs anywhere that you go.
Mine also wanted to check my register and my first aid kit, oh and she checked that I do fridge temps daily.
She asked questions about safety, about sickness policy, and about area's of learning.

She asked about working in partnership and wanted to see proof..... parental questionnaires etc.

Hope that helps :)

I put everything out - and remind the inspector to ask if there's something missing rather than assume I don't have it!

Good luck! :clapping:
