My Ofsted certificate finally came today. I am finally a childminder, now i need insurance and off course Children.
i am so so happy its taken so long, i went to my Introduction to childminding meeting last December.

One question it gives number of children with and without an assistant. My husband has registered to be my assistant but his name is not on the certificate, Should he be named on it or will there be another form with his name or is he not named anywhere?

Also i thought i read on here somewhere it says what rooms you can / cant use. My certificate just has address but there is no mention of rooms just that i am not allowed to have children sleepover.

Thank you a very happy new CHILDMINDER:cheerleader: :cheerleader:

Congratulations :clapping: My certificate recently arrived too, it doesn't have any rooms listed and also gives numbers with and without assistant, my assistants name is not mentioned on there either so the same as yours.

When I moved my cert said I could only use ground floor, except kitchen and garden, and couldnt use 2nd floor except for toilet and bathroom,

Now it says I can use all ground floor and garden, upper floor still only toilet and bathroom and im allowed overnight care now too
