Hi all hope you can all help as this is a bit of a tricky, as do not like 'stabbing' other people in the profession but......
I've just took on tonight a mum and son in a desperate situation due to their other childminder letting her down again!!!!
She has been with her since March only signed contract in June, because Ofsted told her her paperwork was rubbish.
However since then she is continually letting the mum down!!!! Sometimes not even with 24 hours notice. Now we all have emergencies BUT dentist appointments and holidays surely can be given more notice than this????
The mum got a text at 5.30 tonight saying she couldn't have LO due to a bad back?!. The mum is a young single mum really trying to do the right thing and I am now really worried for her that she is going to get stung for 4 weeks notice, which in normal circumstances I would understand, however has the CM breached the contract in one way or the other. I know it was a NCMA contract
Advice please, I really want to help, and prove to the Mum that we are a bunch of professionals that work really hard
