I read a lot of threads on hear from 'minders who-quite rightly-get thoroughly peed off with parents of mindees over many different issues.
I wish I could name the parents of the children I look after 'cos they are all fab!
I consider myself extremely luck to care for the families that I have-they all pay on time,drop off and collect on time-and text or ring if they're held up-never complain if I ring to collect an unwell child,work around my 6 weeks holidays throughout the year,take on board any queries/problems/advice I may pass on and always say thank you and show appreciation for what I do.They never forget my birthday,and the whole family-not just me-get Xmas pressies. They confide in me about matters other than the children and we've been invited to christenings, weddings, parties, barbeques etc and I feel honoured that they like me enough to do this.
I do really feel for those 'minders who have problems with the families the care for and I know how very lucky I am.
