I want to do a course to help me with childminding. I so far have only done the icp course i was going to do the full diploma after that but i dont drive so it would be a pain.
was wondering if theres anyone that has done courses that were helpful or that you could reccomend?

From what I understand the full DHC will become complusory - I would recommend that you try and get it done. Its not a bad course (well I;ve had fun doing it - our group has been a very social group).

I'm doing the NVQ 3 as I can't make courses. I thought it was working towards a level 3 thingy/ dhc - but at the end of the day it makes us up in the stakes of proffessional childcarers so deff worth which one works for you

Try and get funding from the Transformation Fund or similar to do it home study - it really is worth doing! Sarahx
