Do you tell existing parents when you have a new mindee starting? At which point do you tell them?
My current mindee started in September and he's been my only mindee. I wasn't looking for someone for all of that time because I was happy to just have the one during the peek of covid. It's been really lovely actually.
I'm feeling oddly nervous about telling his parents that I have a new one starting next month. I'm wondering if I should have told them sooner, but he didn't actually sign the contract until today. I think I'm a bit nervous because this new mindee (and possibly the next two new mindees) are all just over a year old and so are a quite a bit younger than my current mindee and I feel a bit bad that I haven't managed to get anyone his age who can be his buddy. Nothing I can do about it, I know, but I feel a bit sad for him and can't help but feel his parents will be disappointed.
