I'm sure you will be fine, like you I would go with the flow. Have you got a park you can go to if the weather is nice?

Good luck and hope your day goes well.

Good luck with your first day - it will probably go in a flash. My only tip - try not to cram too much in to it, let the children lead the fun!

Good luck tomorrow !! as everyone else has said .just go with the flow , don't try to do too much , i expect they will be happy just playing and it gives you all a chance to get to know each other . Hopefully the weather will be nice enough to go outdoors . That will tire them out !!

Just wanted to wish you good luck.

I'm sure you'll be fine though.

Like the others have said, just go with the flow and let the children choose what they want to do while you are getting to know them.

It was abit stressful this morning as 4 yr old wanted to get into everything, but I suppose she is just finding her feet.
Her 9 month old brother is having his nap now after his milk feed and my 2 and C are playing lovely with dolls whilst Im helping dressing them
I feel more relaxed now.

After dinner I'll take them for a walk to the park for some fresh air.

[The Juggler]

sounds like you're doing fine! well done.x

[mojo0403]

My first day is finally over. Found it quite hard to be honest. Baby was fine, no problems, it was his 4 year old sister (C) I found the hardest I just hope she calms down with time.

Just realised how good my two lovely children are

Hope tomorow is a better day, thats if C wants to come back.
