Hi all,
Sorry if this is long! :blush:
I have only been registered since Feb so am new to everything. I have been looking after a brother and sister after school since 1st March and them and mum are lovely.
Her and dad have split up. All was ok at first but they have now fell out - big time! I have never met Dad.
He has reported her for all sorts (child abse etc., all of which is untrue, he is just trying to hurt her as he wants her back).
Anyway, things are awful. He has tryed to have me followed but I have been picking the children up at a different time so as to avoid him. He isnt to have contact with the children for two weeks but I am so scared that he will try to snatch them. Mum said yesterday that she was going to transfer their school to a different area from Monday so tomorrow should be my last day (phew!). However she has just phoned me and said she is in two minds about switching their schools and would I still have them if she didn't. :panic: I have said that I will have to have a think about it as I have other children to think about and to keep safe. What would any of you do in this situation?
Also, had she have ended the contract tomorrow we had sorted out between us that she needed to pay me for last week and this week and as I ask for a 2 week notice period she would need to pay me for that as well. However, if I decide not to keep them if she doesn't chnage their school, I guess I would not charge her for the 2 week notice period? or should at least work it? She is so so understanding. I hate this. I am down, scared, tearful and feel like my life is on hold over this. Please help, im normally such a happy person. :D
