Hi
I am struggling a bit in speaking up to parents,
what happened last week, i usually look after two sibling, i only had one last week as the other one was ill and at the grandma, she brought me the 2 years old. He seemed fine but started developping a cough, i told the mum in the evening
The day after she brought him in and told me his cough was worst and he hadnt eaten breakfast but that we was ok and if i could offer him something to eat, which is fine by me. I checked the dairy we use to communicate and put a note of not taking him out !! Now i think it is not fair, i have my son as well and basically I had to cancel activities planned for the day and had to stay in. Am i right to think that a parent cant really expect a childminder to keep their child in because they thibk they are not well enough, surely if it is the case then he shouldnt have come, it is not fair on other children
Then the LO didnt want any lunch and was getting worst, he slept most afternoon on sofa and i called the mum to tell her and that he had 39 temperature and if she could come and collect him asap ! she turned up at usual time 6.30 pm !!!
I only have them two days a week but as a concequence I got ill and my son too , bearing in mind i am pregnant too
I am so crossed but i am always scared to speak up
Do you think I am right to be annoyed or is it just part of the job abd it happens all the time?
