I have only three wks of early years left then starting the new yr afresh with only after school care and holiday care. Although I'll be sad to see the little ones go I'm actually looking forward to having my house back. No more fireguards and safety gates etc. anyone else making any new year changes? :)

Congratulations! In a way, there are changes for me, but not of my own choosing. I'm winding down my CM as from January I will only have 1 early years for two days a week! Not really worth carrying on, but I'll stay until the end of July 2015 for that one child and the siblings (at school). Then August 2015 will start my cleaning business in full. In the meantime on my quiet days I might try and get a cleaning job where they take on self employed cleaners for the elderly.

my changes start today, only childminding at home 2 days a week now. Also doing 20hrs home caring, which is better pay and my house stays tidy:clapping:

Fees will be going up in new year and I'm no longer letting my job take over my life

Congrats to you all on your upcoming changes.

It should do. Im keeping my fingers crossed ;-)
Im not sure which one of us wants the quieter evenings more lol.

Oh no why is it things like that crop up at the worst times? My OH has decided that he would like to move the kitchen round. He will take away a single cupboard but give me a dishwasher! !!!!! Excited is an understatement lol

I am working for a family in next village, it isnt done through an agency. This mummy has been advertising for a while. I do 2 full days during week then few hours on a sunday, also available for odd evening babysitting. Contract is for 20hrs and I can be flexible because I live alone.

It is strange working in someone elses house/home but lovely to come home to tidy house of my own lol
