Hi if i were you i would just put the child upstairs and let him sleep it off. When mum does come then stress to her that you have done her a big favour by letting him stay and stress to her that she MUST be contactable all the time as its not fair on her children or you and yours.

There will be a duty social worker somewhere you can turn to for advice.

I hope you sort it out xx

ended up ringing social services as had no option who sent the on call doctor out the poor lad has ended in hospital with spetic tonsillitis and chest infection and all mum has sed wen she came to pick the other one up is have they bin much trouble. Trouble she doesnt know the half of it :mad: i wouldnt have minded but it was how she spoke but hey ho, well i puting today down to experience and think ive handled things quite well considering i had my own two children 3 other mindees and 2 pre childcare visits.

Hope he gets well soon as he looked really poorly

Hi Elaine,
I think you handled the situation really well, but poor you, it can't have been a very nice day for anyone. Hope the pre- childcare visits went off ok..

Oh blimey, I think you handled everything really well but mum shouldn't have put you in that position - the poor lad must have had some signs/symptoms before today! Hope he's better soon

How did your other visits go?
