I could cry!
I started minding Sept 14 at the time I was still working for the police in my old role of 15 years. I reduced my working hours in original role and did both for 6 months to be sure it was right for me before I jumped completely. My Mum is disabled and is in next village, am married and got 2 children myself. Whoa stop with the hard luck story I know. I signed up for the CYPW a couple of days before it changed to the EYE,,,,,I havent got my maths o level. I then put my head int he sand frightened of doing it I think - that combined with the above. During my time with Pacey I have seen 2 assessors leave (don't think it was because of me...lol) I have had my 3rd one come and visit me - it went well. I had children with me on that day. she said the next time would be without children and we could go through more things. She was due to come on Monday...she sent me this (She wanted me to send a plan of what I was going to do for it before she came)

If I havent got children with me how the heck can I demonstrate a lot of it. I had answered her message with a write up but it wasn't what she wanted - she didn't want the answers she wanted to know HOW I was going to demonstate it. I panicked and didn't do anything (did lots of childminding paperwork, tax bill, etc etc)...then knowing I really had to I logged on today and said could we delay a week I then basically got an email them covering their bums saying the course has been withdrawn and I only have until Jan - its gonna be tough for me to do it. I am now stressing like mad!!!!!
