Hello. My husband and I had a conversation today about how it would be good if he became my assistant so we could both work from home etc. At the moment, he works 12hour shifts for an average wage and doesn't particulary enjoy it.
I know it goes on size a bit...are there any particualar space requirments? We have a 3 bed mid terraced cottage, small living room, fairly big back room which is a dining room/playroom, we then have a small ish kitchen and downstairs bathroom. We have 3 bedrooms upstairs, ours, my daughters and a spare room. What do you think our numbers would be?
Also, I am not registered yet, I have my pre-reg next week, do they allow extra numbers if you are a new childminder? I am so keen to be allowed more than one under one as my DD is 5months and have loads of friends with babies the same age.
I have childcare experience and qualifications, but my husband doesn't. He is great with kids and his mum has always been a childminder so has grown up with it.
We are both young (I am 21, he is 23) will this make a difference?
Any advice?
