My certifiate came through today, I want to be prepared, and also be able to buy contracts etc at members rates. I was just wondering when you bought your insurance? Should I buy it now so I am prepared, or wait until I have a mindee??

It depends on how long it will take you to find mindees... you might waste a few months' money if they don't come along quickly!

I hope the advertising is going well! :D

I brought my insurance the day before i had a mindee starting (after schoolie) and on the phone i just requested that it started that day and took down my registration number and membership number to be able to put on paper work but then i did borrow a few contracts from a fellow childminder so was in a postion to do it this way
