I now have 2 families coming to visit me tomorrow :eek: (thanks for the referral Ellie :thumbsup: ).

At 10.30a.m a lady coming wanting 2.5 days for her 10 month old from November and at 2.00p.m the family needing care 1 day a week for 2 children aged 10 months and 2 years, from September.

Am now REALLY NERVOUS :panic: :panic: :panic:

I know I shouldn't feel like this as I know I am completely capable of looking after the children and providing for them but I can't help but feel worried !!!

Wish me luck. I'll be having a BIG glass/bottle of wine tomorrow night!! :laughing:

xxx off to do some more cleaning now!!!!!!

Oh no problemo! Any time, said I would refer if I couldn't help them out. Hopefully the nice parent syndrome rubs off onto this potential new one!

In a bit of a dilemma myself now about a new enquiry :(

Wont wish you good luck as you wont need it, you're a natural! xx

I'm guessing you wont sleep tonight. You'll eventually get to bed after hours of sorting through your bits and bobs (ooh err!) and then you'll lie down and think "ooooh I need that" Mark my words!

You're going to be great though, you have everything going for you with H. Parents round the corner, knows exactly where you livem etc etc. In fact, I forgot to tell you this :rolleyes: she actually text me last night to say thank you for all my help and of course referring her to you. She said you sound lovely over the phone and thinks it'll all work out perfectly! :clapping: Cannot believe I forgot to tell you this..... I am sooo sorry!!

Zombie over and out x

I sincerely hope you have spent the last few hours filling out boring contracts and paperwork. The suspense is killing us :laughing:

*** UPDATE ****

Well the meeting with the lady this morning went really well and she was very keen UNTIL I told her about the retainer fee :rolleyes: She wants 2 and 1/2 days from November so quite a large amount of money. Amyway, she said she would love to use me and would speak to partner over weekend and phone back on Monday. Won't hold my breath though I don't think.

The family who came this afternoon didn't bat an eyelid at the retainer fee ( wanting one day a week for 2 children from September). Not such a large amount but enough!! They are coming on Monday I hope to sign contracts and give me a cheque for full retainer fee up front :clapping:

I do know her and see her regularly at toddler group so I don't think they will change mind, but of course until the contract is signed anything can happen. Will be keeping fingers crossed :)

Off for a VERY large glass of wine now. Have to say I really don't like this part of the whole thing. My mind is fuddled :laughing:

xxx jo

p.s thanks for asking how I got on :)
