I had my first mum come to visit this morning. She was lovely, and has intimated that her son would be REALLY happy in my home. I have yet to meet him, she came round with her youngest after she dropped the lad off to school. She also asked if I would consider taking her youngest as well.
I said i would need to consider that a bit more, since I can only have one under 5 and he would be taking up that place for only 2 days term time only, but he was lovely and I would really enjoy looking after him. He does already have a minder which is good as there is no rush to make a decision.
So she's going to email me her actual requirements and I am going to look to see how that fits. Then we are going to make a date to meet her oldest to see I he likes my home.
Quite excited really, oooooh! AND apparently the woman who I reported to Ofsted for leaving the infant in the car - this mum went to see her a while back and was appalled at the 'cattle market' she saw in her home! and has seen children left in the car many many times! :angry: Apparently there are several childminders who take a sharp intake of breath when other parents say that she is on their list!!! Still good for my business though - if she's my competition! This mum who was talking to me today must think I am a bit of a wuss though as I had tears in my eyes when she was describing the things other people were saying about her. :(
So hopefully we will sign on the dotted line soon enough and I will have my first mindee on the books hurrah!
