Dear all,
I just wanted to take this time to say a HUGE thankyou for all the support i was given last week. Just knowing people are out there thinking of you makes the difference. I have managed to take myself away from this forum for few days to regroup with my family and check they are all tickedy boo! It is SATS week this week for eldest (year 6) and mummy was not emotionally able to help her early last week, but thanks to this forum and others, i was back on track to be the bestest mummy in the world, and gave her a fab weekend with lots of love and support. Where i live, i feel terribly isolated as a childminder. There are 'network meetings' however with all the government cuts and people being fired and new ones instated, plus moving twice in 4 mths and with a husband that works away i am unable to go to them and so it is just me grasping at any straw i can get to keep going. The only others i know who are minding children are not registered, and therefore don't have any understanding of the paperwork/contracts and sometime sheer hell that we have to go through. This is not me whining i hope - as i have been soooo blessed to have such amazing clients for the last few years. I think that is why it shocks when you have problems as you are not used to it!! Anyway enough rambling - it was just a HUGE THANK YOU TO ALL OF THOSE THAT HELPED ME LAST WEEK - HUGE PAT ON THE BACK - IT MEANT ALOT!!! XXXXXXXX
