Hi Dingledel
A number of local authorities expect their new childminders, to complete the 'Understand how to set up a home based childcare service' unit in the new diploma for the children & young people's workforce, alongside initial childminding preparation training. Check this out with your County childminding team.
You will find it a useful unit to add onto & update your existing NVQ - good CPD. Also, most of it will be very familiar to you and put you into the frame of working on your own and not as part of a team.
