After 4 weeks of waiting I finally had my first inspection today! The lady was really nice and very human! :)

I can't believe it but I actually put the kids in front of the TV while she was here because they were playing up and I couldn't talk to her properly. Once we were done talking tho I took them into the kitchen to play with playdough so it was only for half an hour and I explained they don't usually have TV until quiet time after lunch :cool:

Didn't have anything planned as I been waiting so long for them to come I'd just given up and been carrying on as normal. Honestly think it was the best way!

She gave me two recommendations: More contact with the children's nurseries re EYFS, and more ethnic toys

My overal grade was "Good"! :jump for joy:
I'm thrilled! Have had a few glasses of wine to celebrate and my hubby brought home a lovely bottle of pink champers too for the weekend!!!

She said I'm clearly doing a great job and providing an excellent service! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! !!!!

Thank god it's over tho! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Don't worry

My lady was really nice! Just have all your paper work ready and keep something up your sleave to do with the children that doesn't need too much adult involvement so you can talk to her.

then once she's going through the paper work you can have something a little more adult involved to do
