Hiya,
Have got an enquiry for after school care (don't know the hours, days etc yet) from a different school to the one I collect from.
If I call the little girl I have the enquiry for X and then the little girl I currently look after M I will give you an idea of what I'd have to do:
20 minute walk to X's school for pick up by 2.45pm
then a 15 minute walk from X's school to M's school which is on route :thumbsup: to pick up by 3.15pm then 5 minute walk from M's school, with M & X home.
The pro's and con's I have come up with so far are
Pro - The 20 minute walk to the school wouldn't really be a problem for me and if I had a toddler (which I don't at the moment) they would be in the buggy anyway
Pro - If I did have a buggy I could put X on a buggy board meaning I could run from X's school to M's school if I needed to
Con - What if it was raining?
Con - What if X comes out late - the latest she could come out and me still manage it would be 3pm so surely this won't happen
Con - Start date is September what if I get another enquiry for M's school in the meantime?
Pro - X and M are very similar in age
Pro - X could need school holiday care :clapping:
Con - I'd have to do EYFS with X after school :laughing:
Pro - Even though it'd be a rush to get to M's school once I have collected X the rush is over and I could take X and M to the park together
OK I'm out of pros and cons :laughing:
I would really appreciate some advice on whether to go for it or not :thumbsup:
Thanks!
