Well, am in the process of registering hubby and increasing numbers. Wrote to the council and you've guessed it..........got to get planning permission because I am using all of downstairs and upstairs bathroom :angry: . The fact is it's exactly the same space as now, so why? Hubby and I don't know what to do. Feel like I'm being penalised for working hard and being honest! Sorry just needed to rant............It's all just money making madness. Don't know if I want the street knowing that I am a childminder and just know the neighbours will be funny about it, but really want hubby to work with me. It's just s*ds law :(

Feel a little better now...........

Stupid Council there always seem to be barriers for childminders:angry:

My dh is registered but we can't increase numbers unless we apply for planning permission and there is no guarantee they will grant it! Needless to say we haven't bothered up to now:rolleyes:

Think you will find it is the number of children you will have that is forcing the planning permission.
