Last thursday my mum and co-minder went on holiday so I have been minding pretty much on my own (my sister has helped out for a couple of hours) the children we usually mind together
Wow the week has been hectic. I really do feel for you minders that do it on your own everyday. You can't go to the loo without working out how your going to keep the lo's safe. I have hardly drunk anything and not been cooking dinner for myself until about 7 when I really dont feel like eating anything.
Most days I have had the max of 6 children. They have not been a handful but they were just tiring. All wanting your attention. I had to prepare their dinners whilst watching them all.
One other thing I have noticed is the dihwasher doesnt get emptied, the plates pile up on the side and the washing ends up staying in the washer for the day.
So hats off to all you minders who go it alone I am looking forward to my mum returning next week.
