    Default Middle of night hours!

    I had a lady phone me yesterday needing someone to look after her child from 3.00am to 7.30am every Monday morning!

    Is that the weirdest time enquiry ever or has anyone else had one like this too?

    Grave robber perhaps

    I think i might have just laughed when asked to work from 3am. Or said yes that will be £200. per night. If they can be stupid then so can i

    Did she say what she did??

    Actually it would probably suit me as one week hubby gets up at that time and the next week he gets in from work at that time so I'm awake anyway.

    Are you sure she did not mean 3pm till 7.30pm?

    Sounds really odd hours

    Think of the time she would have to get the child up and out of bed and ready to bring to you

    Nope, it was definitely in the morning! Very, very strange!

    I would love to know what she did but as I was unable to help I didn't feel that I could be nosey!

    Blimey!!!! The only time I see 3am is if one of the kids are ill or I am on a blinding night out!

    She'd be better of trying to find someone who does overnight care

    Can't imagine what she does at that time of day

    I think she might have trouble finding someone

    My neighbour goes to work at 3.30 in the morning I know this because hubby gets back from nights so I always hear next door go in his car

    He gets home around 12 midday

    He works in a factory

    God I would not fancy getting up at that time

    You sure you dont want to do it Lorri haha

    I don't even know what 3.30am looks like anymore! I can't imagine she will have any chance of finding someone to cover those hours! You'd have to be pretty desperate and charge a fortune!

    I just feel so sorry for her child, that's awful.
