gosh i feel so thick today sorry. i've been painting my frontroom, doing my garden, working my evening week end job..... my brain is tired

My Development officer is part of the Local Authority Early Years team (details should be on your council website).

Mine was not very helpful, but mainly as I didn't need anything from her.

Yes they are the person to help with your applications etc.

Yes it's a children's centre. Sometimes i don't make things very clear, mine is attached to one of the sure start children centres

The cdo should be the person that does your pre reg course

My CDO is brilliant - very useful and helpful. your local CIS should be able to tell you who yours is.
Actually I have an NCMA CDW (childcare development worker) as well - how lucky I am to have two eh... and she is fab too.
