Hello my name is Linda Innes, and I have been a registered childminder for the last 13 years. I was originally registered under the social services, changing to OFSTED in approximately 2002, so I have seen many changes in the childcare field. I became a registered childminder after having my own kids and decided not to return to my career, working for Sheffield Social Services as a Key Worker with adults with mental illness or disabilities, as I wanted a career change.
