Do you mainly look after boys or girls?

[tulip0803]

At the moment I am dead equal. 3 boys, 3 girls. I have 3 days with 1 space each and have had enquiries from 1 girl and 2 boys. I also have the sister of one of my new LOs on an ad hoc contract (not had her yet though). Another boy starts in Feb.

3 boys and 8 girls at the moment.
At one point I had 15 boys and no girls at all!
The boys consisted of 5 with the same first name plus 4 with the same first name plus another 4 with the same first name - the other 2 had different first names to the others HOW CONFUSING WAS THAT!!!!!!
Still makes my headache.

That's crazy!!! How did you call them when you had two the same day with the same name?!

Mostly girls always! Have always had one or two boys but at any time could have 6/7 on my books so quite a high percentage of girls. Just had one boy all summer when another left but have had another one start now part time so some male company for him!

I've always been mostly girls. At the moment I have 4 girls plus my DD and then two boys.

[kellyskidz!]

Mostly boys overall, which my daughter wasn't too happy with lol. It's better now because we have 2 girls but she used to whine that there were too many boy toys xx

Does it matter??

[TooEarlyForGin?]

Does it matter??

No, it was just a fun interesting chatty conversation, fun to see how patterns seem to emerge, no need to bring it down.

Me in 10 years have had approx 17 girls and 8 boys.

Does it matter??

No I don't think so but it's a good question to ask

I've def had more boys than girls in all my years of minding

It's funny as my daughters class at school (she is 11) has 24 pupils in it but only 9 of them are girls! It is such a rowdy boisterous class too!! On the plus side the girls are very close as so few if them. There is no other class at their age group.

My youngest daughter is 7 and her class is pretty much even boys and girls and its a lovely balance. She has friends coming out her ears tho as there are 3 classes at her age group!!

Funny how it can be so different from one age group to the next! Xx

[watford wizz]

I have 11 boys at the mo not sure where all the girls have gone!

[watgem]

I've been minding mainly boys fr 10 years! I often wonder if its because most of my children are boys that maybe my house is a boy magnet lol

[cathtee]
