Hi again, I look after a 16 month old 2 days a week, a day is k being dropped off at mine at 6.30am just been lifted out of bed and brought here then picked up at 8.00pm. It is shift work so each week is different. I had k last Thursday and I also had my new mindee 18 months nearly well k was quite jealous but they did play ok together.
Today is my first day of k 13 1/2 hours and M 5 hours. K arrived I gave her brekkie got her dressed before M arrived at 8am, k was already tired by this time but they played for a little while then I decided to take them out for a walk. K screamed and had a huge tantrum the whole time until she finally fell to sleep in the pushchair on the way home, she slept for about half an hour until we got home and when she woke up she looked more tired than she did before.
The girls argued and K just wanted picking up and when I didn't she threw herself about and screamed.
M has gone home now I feel as though I haven't spent any time with her today at all
At the minute K is in the travel cot ( supposed to be going to sleep) but she is busy rolling about.
I think I am going to have a word with mum tonight, I feel that K isn't getting enough sleep and therefore cannot concentrate on anything for any length of time so isn't learning the way she should be and I am feeling pretty stressed at the minute.
Do you think I am doing the right thing? or any other views will be more than welcome thank you x x x
