New to all this but do hope you will be able to help me with my query. I am thinking of training to be a childminder and love the prospect of being able to earn my own money for doing something that i enjoy and am already doing with my two small ones without having to leave them and go to work. I do, however, have no idea about training, potential earnings, insurances or whom to contact to get things underway. Also how do people get over the worry about having all that responsiblity for another persons child?
