i don't think one of my mindees likes me!?
Hi guys - just needing a bit of reassurance.
I started minding in april and have a few different children. I do lots of activities with the children and have meetups with other cms and we plan lots of different activities together. I have 1 mindee who is 2 and he is absolutely fine with me when his mum has left and seems to have a nice time but eveytime when she drops him off he cries (stops when she leaves) and when she picks him up he seems to 'dislike' me and says he's not had a good time. Also when I see them at the school on the days I don't look after him (he has an older sibling so mum does the school runs on her days off) he moves away from me, wont speak to me etc. I just feel so bad. I would hate his mum to think he has a bad time but he just doesn't seem to like me whereas when my husband gets home from work his face lights up. Do any other cms have this problem? it's really getting me down and making me doubt myself. Other children seem fine and happy but then again I don't see them out and about like I do with this mindee.
