First - she won't stay like that for long....
2nd - you don't need to start til September by which time she'll be up and going probably
3rd - with part timers you need to show you are meeting eyfs... but you will complement what is happening in other settings rather than leading the way like you do with full timers
So... for baby E, show how you are meeting her needs while following eyfs - you are providing a good place to sleep, you are checking on her regularly, you are giving her cuddles when she wakes up, preparing her bottle to the highest standards, enabling her environment if she wants to play...
Write it down and put in any comments as time goes by and her routine / needs change or something happens... those are your obs, and from those you can plan her next steps.
I hope this makes sense! If not, feel free to pm me! :D
