mum came round beginning of week to look at the place and has confirmed she wants to book me on Fridays for 3 hours for her little girl. Little girl lives in a very prim and proper house - and mum was bowled over by the kids paradise I was offering.
I explained if she wanted a morning then I would take child to a group I go to for a couple of hours, but she wanted the little girl to spend the time in the kids paradise, so instead opted for an afternoon slot - which is absolutely fine. I do however worry about mum stipulating that we cannot do outings on Friday afternoons - I don't mind being home based most of the time - but if an opportunity arrose to widen the childrens circle of adventure I would want to take it - and I also don't want to be dictated too as its my business.
I just wanted some advice on how to politely word it to say we can be home based - and almost certainly until the little girl is settled and enjoying herself - as she's never been away from mum ever - but we need to remain flexible to other opportunities which may happen away from home from time to time.
Mum is very nice, and actually I don't mind if she decides not to come with me after all - but I don't want to be restricted by my contracts if you understand me....
Someone with a great way with words please help me out here...
