I've been trying to find out what courses I need to do and where I can do them but seem to be going round in circles.

I'm in Manchester if that helps,

Thankyou.

you will need to contact your local families information service and they will point you in the right direction to enrol.

also check out www.childmindingforum.co.uk
for lots of help and support (and insights into the world of minding)

Dis, bear in mind that the process end-to-end can be as long at 9 months

I'm in Northern Ireland so couldn't be of any use to you but good luck

Thanks BALD, I'm actually thinking of doing it when DD starts nursery which will be 2012!

But may do the course and start a bit earlier, am in no hurry, I have some stuff around the house to finish first

Thanks MrsPW and atwork
