    Default Got my 1st inspection this week - few q's

    I have been waiting for this call since Jan lol so I am not surprised but am now in a bit of a flaf trying to ensure all is ok. I am pretty sure I have all my paperwork sorted but am useless with keeping up to date with my accounts, I am so far behind it makes me wanna cry but do the inspectors care or even ask about this? Also I have my emergency contact book with the kids pics on and contact number but want to know if I should have their address too as I did automaticially put it in but now wonder if it may breach data protection...if so I have tip ex

    Think thats it, for now...any advice appreciated x

    Just thought I would update and say I had my inspection on Friday afternoon (talk about make me sweat) and it was fine, I didnt really get nervous because I had the attitude of what will be will be and I can only do what I have tried to do and it turns out I am doing ok and I got graded GOOD I was very happy and other than a few wording problems to my procedures and something re parents sharing info with me (something I cant make them do) I didnt really have any negative comments - she seemed very impressed

    Thanks for all the advice I have received on here, it really is great having somewhere to turn if help is needed
