I think to get a full timer you have to be very lucky. How many days will this one be for?

I have a variation on my registration as i care for twins and a younger sibling, ofsted were brilliant!
I was told that it was a "continuity of care" arrangement. My certificate says i can have 4 under 5 to cater for the twins and to keep there care in the one place.
Good luck !!!

hi, i couldn't work out from your original post as to how many children under 8 you would have at any one time.
i know, ('cos i ended up getting an assistant to solve issue!) that there is no way ever (!!!) that you can have more than 6 under the age of 8 at any one time. but i have assorted variations to allow me to have different arrangements of 4 under 5's on different days!
