    Default 10 years today!

    It is 10 years today since I became a registered childminder!

    I cannot believe that the time has flown by so fast.

    Only seems like a year or two ago that I was made redundant and decided to start minding so that I could be at home with Jack.

    Had only planned to do it as a stop gap until Jack was a little older....but here I still am and I seem to be more committed to it than ever!

    Either I love my job or I am absolutely bonkers .....not sure which.....probably a bit of both

    Why is "phonics" not spelled the way it sounds?
