Hi everyone - back from my holidays now :crying: - had a fantastic time though!
Anyway you may remember before i went away - I had my first meeting with parents as they need care for there child - guess what - i have a message on my answerphone to say they would like me to start on Tuesday!!!
I think they may be hard work as they seem very laid back, never really asked my any questions at the meeting - i just kept telling them info & asking them questions!! When i returned the phone call to say it would be no problem the dad just said he'd drop the child off 8:00am tuesday & bring the paperwork! ( Igave them one of my parents packs & there is a page that asks info on child - likes/dislikes etc) I explained that i'd need to do the contract first as I wouldn't mind without one & he said to fill it out drop it round & they would sign it & bring it tuesday then. I asked if he'd not prefer to come here & we could fill it in all together as there is a fair bit to get through & he just said it was fine.
Anyway - this is my first mindee & will be just for 1 half day & 1 full day a week. I need to fill ALL my spaces & still not having any enquiries even though i'm advertising everywhere!! So hopefully things will go ok - are any of your parents like this ?
