CM Club: If my cousin comes to stay for a few days while I am CMing, must he be CRBed?

[Numberfour]

I think I know that the answer is yes, but I am hoping that there is an ounce of reasoning to this rule.

No, I don't think they would if they are only there for a couple of days, as they would not be a Frequent Visitor.
However you should not leave them alone with children at anytime.

Not sure - I would check with Ofsted though

I was going to say what Nannynick said.

What the others said and to re-iterate - never leave them alone with the children. Also inform your mindees parents.

Thanks, everyone! I intend to do a letter to all my parents informing them of what is happening and have them sign a copy for their children's files.
And of course, I would never leave the kids alone with him!

now to convince DH that Cuz can come and stay.....

PS will check with OFSTED too

Thanks again!
