If so how are you doing the paperwork?

What methods are you using for recording?

TIA

Just sent it! :)

Hi, i'm new to this site and think it's great. Was wondering if HellyBelly could also send me a copy of the birth to 3 info that everybody has been requesting. I have done the course but wasn't sure exactly what it is OFSTED are wanting to see. I am happy to do it myself but just wanted a few pointers in the right direction really. Send to donna at haywardnet dot co dot uk. Thanks

Hellybelly - HAPPY BIRTHDAY - hope you have had a really lovely weekend and how wonderful to go Ice skating - the last time I went was with my children about ten years ago! Just realised my previous spelling mistakes and by all accounts looks as though I have been on the bottle but alas I was missing my glasses (optical) that is.

HellyBelly · 12/02/2006 21:50

No probs Lunavix, what's your email? You can email me at [email protected] if you prefer.

Oldandfat - have a FAB birthday, you should enjoy it! Dh is 45 this year but we believe it's a young as you feel!

lunavix · 12/02/2006 21:33

can I have all these copies too please??

ofsted told me to book on the course (I have the pack) but yes they are all full up.

I'm starting nvq friday.. far enough paperwork!

oldandfat · 12/02/2006 21:25

gona be 40.....don't want to be.

HellyBelly · 12/02/2006 19:45

Course I will Jelly!

Katymac - I will have a look at yours when I have a clearer head - yours are probably better though!

Oldandfat - sent! Why not looking forward to your birthday? I feel like I have a week long birthday actually - this weekend, Wednesday and next Saturday night - had cancelled all plans due to dh loosing his job but it's all worked out and everyone has been so lovely!

Right, ds in bed so where's that wine???

Email on it's way to all who requested it! Please let me know if you don't get it.

HellyBelly · 12/02/2006 17:58

GREAT idea Tan - may try that later

HellyBelly · 12/02/2006 17:58

Tan - i've been like this quite a bit this weekend Everyone wanting to take me out for my birthday as it's my biggy. SIL treated me and dh to ice skating yesterday morning then took us and ds out to lunch and I drank wine (never drink when ds is around but dh was in total charge!) and my db decided to take me out to lunch today and then took me to play pool for an hour!

I'm normally cleaning, doing paperwork, websites or something 'work' but I've got the weekend off as I'm only working Tuesday next week

Tan1959 · 12/02/2006 17:55

No changed my mind, not a straw - an introvenous drip would be better

Tan1959 · 12/02/2006 17:54

Hellybelly - tiddly at this time of day Oh I'm on jealous wish I had a bootle in the fridge! oh and with a straw

I know, you could be a terrible childminder but really good at making paperwork look good - wrong I think!!
