can you be a CM and specify if you only want to mind say 2 or 2 days a week?

[CrushWithEyeliner]

i am thinking of becoming a CM but not fT straight away - is this possible?

thanks xx

I think once you are registered as a child minder you are self-employed so can work whatever hours you choose, as long as you find mindees to suit those hours.

Only if you get parents who want those days

Yes, you can work hours to suit you, but bear in mind that this may limit your prospective pool of parents IYSWIM.

I work Mon-Thurs, have turned down Fridays many times because I do paperwork/prep/banking/doc/hairdresser/loaf on MN

gotcha

thanks

Round here work is plentiful for CM's i decided i only wanted to work Tues, wed thurs mornings for a while and now am doing tues, wed ,thurs til 5pm - that's the great thing about it, you can do as you please

Like BoysAreLikeDogs I have plenty of time for paperwork and my own DC but offer myself up for extra minding or babysitting when i need more cash
