Good morning everyone!
Question of the day:
If you could go back in time and give the newly registered you one piece of advice, what would it be?
Mine would be, don’t feel guilty about making time for yourself throughout the day. I remember when I was first registered I would be on the go the whole time and felt I shouldn’t stop all day. It was exhausting! Now I don’t feel bad about sitting down with a cup of coffee while the children are playing happily and if they’re all asleep at the same time, I make the most of the opportunity to have a break. Over the years I’ve seen so many childminder friends run themselves ragged because they don’t make time for themselves. There aren’t many jobs where you work a ten hour day without a break, so don’t feel bad for looking after yourself :clapping:
