Not sure what to do...

as mentioned it would be a realy good idea to take turns with this other CM to watch buggies and take LO's into nursery,

we have to leave our prams and LO's outside the nursery doors but staff are there and we just pop in to help with coats,
we are lucky the doors are onto the playground and are glass so we can see the prams etc..

offer to help and she may talk to you and tell you what happened, we all have bad days and need a little friend or help

let us know how it works out im sure she will be greatful for a helping hand x

This is what me and another minder were going to do but our children are at different sessions. I leave my mindees in the pram outside the door where the nursery staff stand to greet parents. If I have to go in I do so quickly and explain to the other children that I need to go because xxx is outside in the pushchair. All my parents are aware of this. It's really awkward because the nursery aged children want you to go in like the other parents to see them do their name. All the other minders leave their children and one even in the past has left one holding onto the pushchair outside (I would never do that). I would talk to the childminder in passing and offer to take turns. I know if it was me I would be really grateful as I would beable to relax whilst seeing to the others instead of flapping!
