If I have all my under 8 spaces filled but mum has had a baby would I be allowed to take on the baby or not?

As far as I understand its max 6 under 8's no exceptions even for variations or continuity of care.

Not without an assistant.

The maximum number of under 8s is 6, in any circumstances.

I agree with Dawn.

Stop counting heads and start counting your blessings. And well done for having attracted them all - you must be doing a good job.

As has been said the 6 under 8 rule is never to be exceeded. Ofsted will give no leeway on this and will give inadequate during an inspection
