I had a phone call from Ofsted today, asked if i was minding yet, asked the ages and said thank you I will get back to you...
What does that mean, I was thinking I would get inspected around sept time, now im worried!!

It depends on how busy they are in your area I think.

It's likely you will get a call within a week or so. :D

My friend was only minding for 6 weeks....yes 6 weeks and she had a call.
Other friend was minding for 6 months. Both only had one child each and they came out to them within 2 weeks.

I was registered in Feb and have had no call........must depend on your area. Maybe they have forgotten me! :clapping:

So do they call again to say they will be coming? I know they dont always give specific times and dates but do they at least give you an idea?

Good Luck

I registered December last year. Got call end of April asking about how many children etc. Came back to me last week and told them had no children but had done 1 day with lo. Came back to me today to say yes I needed to be inspected but it would only be a paper inspection. Also that I'd only get a satisfactory.

Also said that as it was a paper only inpsection I'd be able to state time & date. So Tuesday 15th June 9.30 am.

Policies are all up to day, just need to reword a couple of bits on risk assessment. I'm sure there will be bits I haven't got that I needed. Really need most of all is to do some house work, pig sty round here:) :)
