Hi
I began childminding in August and got a call for my first inspection last week,she then called later in the week to say something of more priority has come up and she wouldnt be able to do my inspection which should of been today! The inspector said she would call me later this week to arrange a new date. Kinda wanted it over and done with and now I sit wondering when it'll be :(:panic:

prob will be soon then - thanks for your reply. I just dont feel ready if I do get it I am behind on risk assessments and basic stuff been strugglig juggling my own family and cm to be honest. will get my head down this week so feel better.

Hi Gem,

I was registered mid April and I had my first inspection 2 weeks ago, so it was pretty much 6 months later.

Dare I say, I found my inspection really useful and not at all as scarey as I was expecting. The inspector was fantastic and put me and the children at ease within minutes. I really felt she managed to get the best out of me. I hope yours goes just as well!
