Thanks Muggy .. Having re checked on the ofsted website, I have a funny feeling there may be an issue with my postcode
Recieved a lovely email in reponse to some queries I sent in and omitting personally identifying data was as a result of a wide scale survey.
I'll make a new thread with a link to how to search for a Childminder
As for advertising I think if a childminder were to include their URN on any leaflets / cards etc parents will be able to find the details quickly through the ofsted site .... I'm off to practice ..lol
