Yay... that mum who came to see me yesterday with the 5 week old baby called back today, while I was out.
Missed the call, but have caller display, so called her back. She started by saying, thank you very much for taking the time to see us yesterday...' which I thought was going to turn into the but we have decided to go with x instead'. But she didn't.
She came round 20 mins later & signed the contract. She had forgot her bag, so didn't have a chq for the deposit, but said she will drop it round to me.
She goes back to work in July, but I haven't got a space until Sept, and she's happy with that. I have said if a space comes up before, or any of them go on holiday during the summer hols, then I may be able to help her out here & there before. And I told her about my 3 week holiday at xmas yesterday, so she must have liked me! :thumbsup:
I definitley think it's a confidence thing. I've been doing it a year, and I've had a few prospective parents for babies, when I started, but felt inferior because I had no 'experience', so kind of put myself down. Now I have a few on my books, so feel more confident! To all the newbies - don't give up - it will happen. It's taken me a year to get a full timer, but I have!!
