Hi everyone,
This afternoon was my first proper childminding session. R arrived at 1.00pm and once mum left he cried for 35 minutes, screaming and difficult to calm down. Eventually, thanks to Cbeebies and a biscuit he settled and began playing.
My double buggy arrived at 2.00 - thank goodness. My DD woke at 2.00 and played with R and they were so cute together (there are only 10-days between them). Set off for school at 3.00pm and DD and R were really cute copying each other, etc. Then R starting pulling at DD's top so I told him not to do it. The next thing DD started screaming and crying, and all the parents were staring at us! R had bitten DD's finger really hard and drawn blood :eek: Then R's granddad arrived at school to take R from me and so I told him what he had just done and it went straight over his head. Just told R to give me a kiss and to wave :rolleyes:
Thankfully, another parent offered to watch my two DS whilst I took DD into school to run her hand under the tap. She was so upset that I could have cried for her.
So, my day was going pretty well until the last few minutes.
What should I tell the mum tomorrow when she drops R off? My DH is not happy about it all, but it's my first day and I want to remain positive and think of it as a one off. What if he does it again? :(
Hope everyone else has had a good day :)
