sure jensmum here it is
"I was wondering if I could put in a request for 2 under 1’s. I will shortly be looking after a baby that will be a couple of months old when she starts. She is the sibling of a child I have currently cared for, for around 3 years. I also have my own baby due at the beginning of June.
During Term time this will mean having 3 under 5’s. I don’t know if this is possible but during the school holidays would it be possible to have 4 under 5’s as long as my total numbers does not exceed 6? If this is not possible then that’s fine, I would have to sort something out for the other ones, But I would definitely still want 2 under 1’s variation.
I have prior experience with caring for more than one under 1, when I worked at a local day nursery, I was primarily with the under 1’s. Caring for upto 3 at once.
As well as having experiences that I have ganied through childminding.
As I have cared for under ones already during my childminding career, I already have one set of equipment and will be purchasing another set for my own baby, so I am already well prepared. I also have a good family support network, my husband is often at home, and my mom is only 15 minutes away. Although they’re not registered, if for any reason I needed to call on them to care for my own child then they could. Although this certainly wouldn’t be a regular occurrence, and feel able I can cope with the variation alone.
I have attached a copy of my timetable for you to see the children that I would have here at the same time. Once you have looked at my timetable, if you could let me know what is or isn’t possible, as the children I care for in the school holidays is different to term time.
I know that there is probably quite a lot of paperwork involved, but it would be great if I could get some sort of idea if this is going to be possible, so I can at least discuss it with the parents of the baby."
