co- childminder or assistants?

Hi,

Was wondering if any-one has any knowledge of using the above to maximise their numbers and whether Ofsted allow this??

Do you also have to take into account the size(s) of rooms available? How can you work it out?

Also has any-one been given permission to have another child outside the ratio? e.g. another 2-3 yr old?

Hope this makes sense?
