Had a parent meeting this morning for a potential 14 month old. Never met the parent before, she called last night and asked to see me today. Explained I was on a playschool pick up, would be home by 12.
Cleaned and tidied around before I left for the playschool run. Got back at 11.40 and she was waiting on my doorstep. Had my DS and two mindees by this point. House was clean and tidy, mindees and DS very well behaved.
Mum sat there not really listening to anything I had to say, just looking in horror as soon as mindee started to build a lego tower etc!! DS came in from the playroom dragging a gorilla bucket full of balls with him and the three of them sat in a circle on the floor, alternating between rolling the balls between them and the lego. Mum piped up and said "I just dont know how you cope with this mess!" Mess? Some lego and some balls? Jeepers, she should see it by 5.30!! Didnt know whether to be offended or laugh!!
To be perfectly honest, I wont be losing any sleep if she doesnt come back to me!
