    Default it just got worse

    well after all the hassle of the parents accusingm e of not feeding their child their breakfast, another parent has handed their notice in as a relative is moving in with them therefore they don't need childcare.

    feel very low at the moment, can't see the light at the end of the tunnel just now

    Big hugs to you and remember it will be for a reason and things will be better than before. Hopefully you will be asked to look after twins full time with really nice parents who have a lot more respect for you and treat you as you should be rather than the !!!!! ones you had before.

    Keep smiling.
