    You can make it work for a couple of days I'm sure, plan a simple activity for the morning, go collect from nursery, lunch and free play and it'll be time to go home

    I'll see what she says! I don't have a car for minding so she's getting someone to drop her off or she will collect from nursery early.

    Sorry Hun, didn't read the bit about having to get a car...well if she needs childcare then she'll make it work.
    Although LO being dropped to you would make it easier for you, let us know what she says x

    Will do, although she seems to take ages to reply! Other family might have the space before she's even got back to me lol x

    She said no because it's more than she pays just now so she only wants to pay for the hours she uses - good luck to her finding someone to do that

    I just said "no problem " I think she was hoping I'd say I would just charge her for what she's going to be using!

    Oh well never mind something better will come along - it may have proved a bit of a problem if planning on going out and always needing to be back at a certain time anyway xx

    Things happen for a reason...I believe that about life in general...
    She'll be lucky to find someone to just charge the 2 1/2 she needs...like your post said initially 'is it worth my while?'

    I'm a great believer of this too!

    She said she's sorted something now so more full the minder who has taken her on (supposedly she's a bad payer too) but unfortunately there are a couple in the town that desperate for work that they will take anything on.

    I'm happy with what I've got so anyone else I take on now will be on my terms and because they fit in with our routine. I have an ad hoc coming to visit next week which would do me fine

    Sounds like a lot of hassle to me!
