I have a mindee (after schooler) who has been with me since September last year. Her Mum rang me last week to say she won't be renewing with me as she has signed up with another minder in from this September :ohdear:
The Mum has asked me not to mention it to the mindee as she doesn't know she is going elsewhere. She feels it is to far ahead for her daughter to know about. This will also be her third minder in as many years :rolleyes:
I understand this, however she is my only mindee afterschool (kept numbers low due tohavinga baby last October) and she is very close to my DD who is four and starts her school on September.
I want my DD to know this girl is leaving at least a week before her last session as my DD will be gutted. Should I discuss this with the Mum? Also the mindee's sister starts school with my DD and the mindee is already making plans for thing the three of them can do together.
