    Default Problem

    I had a visit from my development officer, she said that ofsted expect that parents have 3 emergency contact people listed to get in touch with when needed in a emergency. I have one set of parents who put themselves down as incase of emergency. I did quey this at the time and recommended that they put a family member or friend down and they said they have no one but themselves. How do i get around this with ofsted

    I mind for a single father with no other family... the mother is not allowed access to the child (by court order).

    His only emergency contact is stated as 'social services'. This is your only choice. If parents are in a car crash together (God forbid!) the child has to go somewhere and you have to get them to sign to say this is their wish.

    Wonder if they can pull some relatives out of the woodwork?
