From one of my neighbours. I don't know her very well as she keeps to herself mostly but she just popped over to ask if Bri could go and help her.
Anyway I invited her in and said, oh excuse the mess I haven't tidied up from the children yet.

She then said, oh you are a (said something in her language), I must of looked confused because she then said you are a second mummy to lots of children aren't you. I said, well yes i am a childminder and she said where she comes from someone who does that is called a 'second mum' and that they are considered to be very special people. she then said, i have watched you with the children and you are very good with them and they obviously love you, if i had young children I would want you to be their second mum.

If you have a compliment/complaint book you could always write what the neighbour said in it - others would see it and you can look back on it.
