I got talking to a lady who lives in the street next to me ( i dont really know her only ive only spoken to her twice) and she told me she was a nanny a few weeks ago (explained about this in a previous thread),
Anyway saturday night my door bell went and it was her.
the first thing she said was can i ask you a question, i said yes and she then asked me how much i charge an hour, i told her and then when i asked her why she told me that she was an unregistered childmminder who looks after a 2yr old child mon-fri 7am-7pm and gets paid £100.00 pw and the parents said that they are paying too much and want to drop it to £50.00 pw :eek:
so She wanted to know what i charge so she could tell them what a better deal they are getting by using her and not me a registered childminder :angry: :angry: (her words not mine)
I then went on to explain why i charge what i do and the difference between a registered and unregistered childminder, the outgoings i have as a childminder :angry: what might happen if the child had an accident, she said oh he has and told me some shocking things about the childs parents which had alarm bells ringing in my head afterwards.
Well i phoned Ofsted and reported her and after telling them what she said to me about the parents they would advise me to phone social services as the child might be at risk,
Now my only concern is that its hear say what she has said to me, i dont really know her and for all i know she could be lieing to me about the parents, so i dont really feel that i can phone social services, advice PLEASE somone.
sorry for long thread
