ha i dont even no, ive just been told they will let me know if they need me for a couple of days or if family are going to help out!! the thing is i told them if they take their hols during school hols i wont charge them but if they need to use me ,even for just a day or so,i will charge for a full week, so i think theyre trying to save some money lol. either way not too bothered, ill either have some cash or a much needed break :) :) x

I am working next week and Mum has just asked do I want to do Boxing Day. :panic: Smiled sweetly and said - Oh if only you had given me more notice. My policies say I need a months notice to work BH's. Especially when I know the Dad finished work yesterday until 5th Jan :rolleyes:

I'm working mon and tues both quite easy days. Been given wed off which is great. I have booked 29th 30th and 31st off. 1st is offered but at double fee so not being used and then im back on the 2nd. Im really looking foward to having the time off my house can look as crazy as it wants and my ds can play with his toys before mindees come back.
As for xmas day. How could you send your child to a childminder on xmas day? poor kid.

Hiya

I am working Mon and Tues next week and Mon, Tues Wed the following week. I've worked in Edin Uni for 18 years and have been used to 2 weeks, sometimes more due to working part time so this year is hard. Think I will revert to the longer hols next year (only prob there is we don't work we don't get paid!). Think it's also hard for my family and friends cause we always catch up during those two weeks and now I'm telling them I am working so having to rearrange dates etc. Poor us . . .

Im working right through this year except the bank holidays. One of my parents started a new job and will be working right up until midnight on Christmas Eve. (I wont be having the mindee all that time though). Ive worked through the last couple of years and have never had a day over the holidays when I have all my mindees. Im one down tomorrow, 2 down on Tuesday and one down on Wed..... so far. There is time for more to drop off yet lol

Another life time ago I was a nurse and my eldest had a childminder so I know how difficult it can be to find holiday season childcare when you have a job that is a 24/7 365day thing.

WOOHOO! Ive actually gathered an extra :rolleyes: An ex parent called to say she has to work now because someone has gone long term sick and could I have her daughter this week.

I didnt mind because I haven't seen her since Sept (they moved) and she is a delightful child :)
