    Default Feeling quite smug

    I started minding in may & so far I've had 7 families sign up
    Every family I've met has signed up
    Just had a visit from a mum wanting care for her son & she wanted to sign contracts there & then (I was going out so didn't have time. She's coming back at 9am tomorrow)

    Yay

    And so you should
    That's a fantastic start to a very rewarding career and you must be doing everything right if everyone who you have met have signed!!
    Keep up the good work and a BIG well done!

    Well done.

    I have only had one parent come and visit and not use me and I was so relieved. I did not feel very comfortable with mum and the LO was a bit of a tinker into everything he should not have been, especially horrid to my cat. I was dreading telling her that I was unable to have her LO, but I never heard back from her - phewww!!!

    Always listen to your inner voice - if it says something is right then go for it... if it rings alarm bells listen to it!!

    Well done you long may it last

    Well done. I've had a few parents visit and there's been something, don't know what it always is, but I thought no this aren't the right people for me. Luckily I'm in a position where I don't need to work to pay the bills so can afford to say no to some. Always feels a bit awkward though
