Several of my colleagues have had a visit from a new DO who has had them in tears! She has told them that the paperwork they are doing (planning, obs etc) isn't enough, has given them lots of templates for short, med and long term planning, obs, next steps etc! I know these minders do all these things and were told by our previous DO (who has been off ill for about 4 months) that they were fine. Another minder is due a visit this week and is dreading it. I can't wait til she comes to see me, she is going to be in for a shock! With all the info available on here, I know what we need to do and what we don't! I am not going to be bullied by bureaucracy. My previous DO was lovely and was happy with what I was doing, there is enough paperwork without being given un-necessary forms to fill in!
This woman is going to frighten everyone off from childminding, at least 1 minder is leaving due to the changes and amount of paperwork we are expected to do, even though its not all a requirement!
Do any other minders have DO's who are like this?
