I have been nominated for some business award & I have to write 2500 words by tomorrow in order to qualify

I'm up to about 2000 - but completely stuck on the last bits

I was expecting a quiet calm evening

Congratulations on the nomination though!

Thanks

I now need 250 words on why/how I have expanded/increased my business & 250 on why my customer service is better

It's a bit vague isn't it?

I know the award you are up for!! ICS?? Good luck...

I thought it was Spirit of Enterprise.......NWES??

What's ICS??

Is this any good??

What does your business do and what inspired you to set it up?

I am an OFSTED Registered Childminder working with a team of registered childminders and assistants providing high quality
childcare in a home environment. It is our intention that children at Walnut Corner are cuddled, loved and allowed to grow and learn through play. We aim to put into practice the framework of ?Birth to Three Matters? that encompasses all our values at Walnut Corner. We also run a small out-of-school club for children who attend school or live locally.

We are able to provide care for up to nine children (under the age of five) each day within our childminding area which consists of a large playroom, a smaller quiet room; a child sized downstairs cloakroom, kitchen and dining facilities, a sheltered outdoor play area, and a large garden with lots of outdoor toys. Indoors we provide a variety of toys, books, games and activities for babies and children from birth through to sixteen years.

Before I started childminding I was working for the Civil Service, I had intended to continue working for the Civil Service as I have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and I needed the job security provided. However I had been increasingly unhappy with my job satisfaction and when I was offered voluntary redundancy, I was very grateful to be able to start my own business.
