Oh thankfully it went really well, and in fact I got praised by the inspector. She has given me an "suitable person with no actions", so I am so pleased. Have to say my tummy was like a washing machine beforehand. The inspector was really nice, but did tell me the next grading inspection will be more formal.

Good luck to everyone who has their inspection coming up. xxxx:clapping:

thats fantastic, I am waiting for the all, they said 5 weeks, which will be up the end of this week, so any day now, I am dreading it, hoping Christmas has delayed them a little :)

well done you! :clapping: Hopefully it will all happen quickly for you now :D

Well done :clapping::clapping:

I had my visit today too - know what you mean its so nerve racking before she arrived - but she was such a lovely lady, really friendly and encouraging, so to all of you who have not had your visit - try to relax about it - they are on your side and the lady who came to see me was really helpful and gave me loads of advice. She put me down for the maximum of 6.

I rang Ofsted to chase my certificate today, and it was posted yesterday!! yippee that means I am officially a CHILDMINDER.... just want to get some mindees now. x:clapping::clapping::clapping:
