Childminder without children of their own

**heatherw** · 20-04-2010, 02:19 PM

I was wondering if there are any other childminders in the same situation as me. I don't have any children of my own. My husband has children from a previous marriage so I have step-children I see all the time but none of my own.

I was just wondering if there are any childminders that don't have children of their own because everyone I know have their own children.

Hi - I think there are a few on here so I'm sure someone will come by and put your mind at rest.

mine are grown up....18 and 23. eldest has left home. so its a long time since i did little ones really. Things have changed since mine were little but i read up on it all and asked my sister (she has a 3 year old)

Both my mindees mums are happier i dont have any children of my own. I have no affliation to my own child therefrore i can be there just for there kids. I thought my age (42) would put folk off but i think they way you are is what they will like!

I wouldntve minded sending my kids to someone without their own children. I think i would be fine ...actually thinking about it i had a nanny when my youngest was a baby (she needed physio, speech and occ therapy) and she was single with no kids. My lot loved her so much. She was like a big sister and aunty all rolled up into one.
