Think this woman needs to give her head a shake:(

Ah. Maybe I'm not a childminder after all.....

did you get the bit about not having to many children on the books as your child would get less time devoted to it and you should choose a minder with experience as they are better rather than qualifications. How judgemental is she and whats the betting she is not a childminder nor ever has been

I'm a bit confused anyway as at oen stage she says we can look after five children and earlier she said six. I shall have to cut a child in half :laughing: I don't have an alarm on my door and nobody apart from me decides whether or not I cook for the kids. As for a propective parent spending the whle day with me..... :eek:

She's really got my back up! :eek: Wish I'd never seen it!!

It's not THAT bad and I need opinions on her state of mind.....

her state of mind - she really hasn't got a clue what she is talking about, she knew REAL minders would see it and knew she may not be able to walk the streets safely, she was reading from a script - she actually had no idea what the 'interview' was supposed to be about.......:laughing:

I was all for her to start with apart from having a parent with me all day!!! I thought everything she was saying was fair enough.......

But then! She started saying your toddler could be taken on a 3 hour school run!!! Right!!! And then about how flexible we are....apparently we can look after children up til 8 or 9 at night if 'the parent' wants!!! Weekends too!

If a parent watched this and then visited a childminder, that parent would be in for a shock!

That's why she irked me- she spoke with such authority about a subject she bviously knows nothing about. What she says are things we may do - but not that all good childminders have to

SO funny!!!!:ROFL1: :ROFL1: :ROFL1:

The main point being we are cheaper than nannies then?!

Oh and checking out everyone that lives with us, my dh would love that one!

So, who does a 'massive' 3 hour school run? Mine's a paltry 30 mins.

My school run is going to feel like 3 hrs tomorrow in this weather:D

couldnt watch to the end :panic: very odd -reminded me of a child somehow and a bit dozy too :blush:

She had too much saliva (sp?) in her mouth and needed to swallow a bit more often :panic:
