The book looks at: the role of the childminder; the daily routine; working in partnership with parents; what it is like to work from home, for you and your family; how to arrange your fees and contracts; how to deal with common issues such as illness and behaviour; and how to respond to complaints?Illustrated throughout with real life examples, this book will provide all childminders with tried and tested support, advice and tips on how to do the job well, from one professional to another.
