    Default Friday the 13 and I am lucky!!!!

    Sorry in advance, as i have posted this in the Lounge under Angels' Friday the 13th thread, but just in case no one has read it ...and because I am so excited about it and because I have had too many Bacardi's here goes.......


    Friday the 13th has gone well for me!!!

    I have had one woman I know from playschool saying she didn't realise I was a childminder and she is really interested in me having her 2..... and she only lives across the road, which I just found out about!

    Then only 5 mins later a childminder came over to me and introduced herself and said that she has been looking for someone all week to help a parent who needs childcare for 2 kiddies and they can't find anyone, until they realised I was newly registered!
    It's such a good earner! The Job Center are paying 80% and cos the mum has to got to travel to the next town on the bus I will be responsible for the kids while they are at school and pre-school so I can ask for full fees! (that's what the childminder says)
    So money for doing nothing, but taking and picking up. I am ashamed to say I am excited about that prospect! You don't these opportunities very often. (and cos the mum is only having to pay 20% of the fees I am not too worried) It's strange to find out how much the Job Centre are willing to pay for someone to go out to work!
    I am just waiting for her phone call, apparently she needs me for Monday. We will have to wait and see.... Please cross your fingers for me that she rings xx

    No, i haven't heard from her yet.

    She needs someone by monday and by the sounds of it there is only me out there that can do the job, everyone else is full, or cant do it, so I would have thought she would have phoned by now. Maybe she won't..
