    Default Hoping for things to start looking up

    After a really crappy 2 months what with my car needing a new engine, hubby being biten bt a cocker spainel, me having a miscarriage then we were told MIL had terminal cancer then she past away a week ago, I am really really hoping to get a signed contract on Fri for 2 children aged 2yrs & 1yrs fro full time starting asap possbile, I am also waiting to hear back from a lady wanting full time care for her baby from Jan to arrange a day for her to come for a visit.
    Both sound promising the only problem I have si the mum with 2 children wants childcare to start asap I have 1 space now & another from Sept I suppose I could try ofsted to see if they would allow it for 2 weeks.

    Also a good thing that has also haapened is that while I was away last week I got a call from a lady offering me NVQ3 for free so she is coming last week of aug to discuss it.

    That all sounds very positive and I am very pleased for you.

    Good luck with potential mindees. I am sure Ofsted would grant you a variation for 2 weeks, especially as its for siblings.
