    thanks peeps

    she firstly wanted a mooch around the house discussing any risks i may have noticed, there were a couple i had written down but sorted before the visit, she did ask to see this so have your risk assessment sheet to hand, then it was mainly safeguarding and welfare, then onto the prime and specific areas etc, it was more chatting with topics 'dropped' into the converstion and it just kind of rolls off the tongue! I showed her all my record books and portfolio i had put together and she was very impressed, i think if you show you have made an effort and have a good understanding then they are happy. All i can say is really do read your eyfs frame work book and development matters info, she also asked about the 2 year progress check.

    She also wanted to see identification and the safeguarding, peadiatric and local authority pass certificates.
    Good luck, it REALLY ISN'T as bad as you expect! x
