    Default Mindee's Leaving

    Hi

    I was wondering if anyone had any ideas please.

    I have 2 mindees leaving me at the end of the week I have looked after one for just over 2 years and the other one coming up for 2 years. I'm really gutted that they are going.

    I would like to send them a letter or something, something they can keep and look back on.

    Any ideas.

    Much appreciated if anyone can help.

    Thanks

    I cry buckets when long term mindees leave. One left in the summer as my son left primary school and I would no longer be picking up from the school. All of us cried - me, child, mum ! She is 9 and I had her from 9 months.


    Will keep that poem till I need it next summer as all my current mindees will be leaving for school or nursery.

    I make up little photo album for mindees who are leaving with carefully labeled photographs of the people they see every day and often leave behind as well such as other mindees, friends from toddler group etc. There is also a file for each child to take home and keep that will contain their 'I am me' book, pieces of work ect.

    But if its ok I'd like to use the poem too. It would make a great first page
