Had the call

[SMullin]

Ive had the call and Mrs O is coming next week. Feel sick to my stomach to be completely honest! Never had to do anything like this before and i realllly dont like being observed either.
Im pretty sure i have everything under control, paperwork, planning, Ra's etc but still nervous.

It's a horrible feeling when you get the call but at least you have the weekend to check everything through.

On the day just keep to your usual routines, don't change anything as children have a habit of mentioning anything new/different ; give Mrs O your paperwork and then just carry on.

You'll be fine

Good luck

I think we all feel a bit like that when we get the call!

Be yourself and don't do anything different with the children and you'll be fine.

Don't forget to let us know how you get on!

Phew.....glad that's over with! She was here 3 hours and it wasn't as bad as i thought it would be.
She said i had done really well for my first inspection considering i dont have a childcare background. She said my grade is confidential until i receive my report, but i am pleased with it.
Lots of focus on safeguarding and she said my risk assessments are good. She really like my daily diaries and LJ's.
Big thank you to Sarah as she said my SEF was good and i used your e-book. Thanks to everyone else on here :
