Childcare standards falling, Ofsted

i agree with the above. do the parents realise the dedication of staff,on low salaries. I left childcare 3 years ago ,after40 plus years and my highest salary in a senior post was £6.50.The present national minimum wage is now over £5 and that is with out any experience or let alone qualifications.Most parents now a days use childcare as a dumping ground. Do anything right for the child and what thanks or praise do you get.Do a minor thing wrong and they are all out to sue you.I agree I've got away from the point but how many parents,carers etc. write to Ofsted etc.to praise the good work.Most of the people I know take work home as the have no time to do it at work .If they did the children would be neglected. I agree there needs to be rules and regs but does anyone agree they are taking freedom of choice out of the lives of children .Let alone not being able to enjoy their childhood.Sorry to go on but this is a subject that more than annoys me
