Cypop5 ordered!

[PeekABoos]

And my textbook came today

Husband is out tonight and tomorrow night so I can crack on with it

Shouldn't take too long to receive yours hopefully

Fingers crossed. How are you finding it so far? Xx

[flipflop20]

It's not too bad, I've looked at the first couple of tasks and started answering, but haven't had loads of time where I can concentrate on it. Once the kids are in bed tonight I'll be sitting down and properly getting through it.

I've mainly be concentrating on the policies, It asks you to write accident, illness and emergency policy, behaviour policy, equal opportunities policy and safeguarding. A childminder friend of mine told me to look at Bromley councils childminding website. They have loads of sample policies so might be worth getting ahead and starting those before all ur stuff comes through

1.3 -Data Protection and Confidentiality

And now doing Signs of Abuse and Task 5 too before starting on Task 4 - the business plan etc xx

[LG2014]

How you getting on?

[flipflop20]

Not too bad. I've done the following:

Accident, illness and emergency policy (but I've split them into 3 separate policies as think it's better than 1 as there's so much to cover.

Equal opps policy

Behaviour policy

Safeguarding policy

How to administer medicines - but again done this as a policy?? Not sure if that's right .

For task 1, how did u present this did you just do this as a written document?

How u getting on?

I've just called it a night

[PeekABoos]

I've just called it a night 

Forgot what studying is like, so draining!

Have submitted my first task though  fingers crossed it comes back ok. Task 2 is done just want to go back to it tomoz to check when feeling a bit fresher before submitting.

It's really good so far though 

Fab to hear!! Yeah studying is sooo draining and actually find it worse when at home because you have so many other distractions but all the same so many benefits to it. Fingers crossed my passwords etc will be through soon Xxx

[LG2014]

Hi with 1.1 I did word document.

Hope you getting on ok x

[flipflop20]

Hi with 1.1 I did word document. Hope you getting on ok x

Okies I submitted it as two fact sheets fingers crossed that's ok

Hubby's just gone out again tonight so another night on it for me. How are u doing

[PeekABoos]

So jealous I so want to get going lol. xx

[LG2014]

Doing ok I've done my signs of abuse one and data protection and confidently one done and submitted.

Just got my business plan to do but gonna put that off for a bit and get on with Task 5 x

[LG2014]

I'm sure you've done fine.

What did you explain and did you talk about regulatory body? Xx

[flipflop20]

Hopefully it will be ok.

I did a fact sheet on legislation and bullet pointed the key points of The data protection act, children act, the childcare act and equality act. I think I should've done Riddor though.

I then did a fact sheet about ofsted, and summerised the key points in the 4 areas.

I'm worried it's not right. Submitted the policies tonight, but really confused now as session 2 refers to the accident, illness and emergency policy! Should I not have submitted that yet?

[flipflop20]

Oh and I've just started session 2 x

[LG2014]

With 1.1 I explained what you said except I didn't do RIDDOR either and it was fine. I did poster on Ofsted and four points. And separate sheet on what I do for Anjum parents - change literature, take Anjum to toddler groups help with social language development. Take longer to help her settle in. Ask parents about her culture and give them advice on services that can help them.

Task 5 - Section 2 is more about safety checks in house/emergency plans.

You will find as course goes on different topics overlap into others xx

[LG2014]

Have confidence in yourself hun! I'm sure you've done brill! X
