    Default what on earth happened from 3pm yesterday.....

    had a call from lady wanting childcare for the next ay (today). argh.
    i took the plunge and said call round we can have a chat, and all that.
    she is signed there and then, OMIGOD.
    mon to fri 12 -6 pick up from pre school.
    but i suggested t meet her at the school friday as i cannot help to today with my job and i certainly am not jsut going to turn up at his school ( one i dont know) and take him home.

    it so happens that his first day with me, will be his 4th birthday. OH MY.
    not sure i would have done this, but hey thats me. im sure we will have fun all the same. pick up a little cake for after tea. shall i get him a little something , i feel i should.

    thanks tina

    Congratulations! She must have liked you if she signed there and then!

    I would probably give him a little something and a card for his birthday.

    Good luck with it all!

    Well done on your first mindie and the mum obviously liked you.

    I would buy a small pressie, it doesnt have to be much, but just a little something and a nice cake for lunch or tea

    Hope all goes well

    OMG!! Great news for you, bit odd that the mum is happy to meet you once and be prepared to leave him straight away for so many hours, and on his birthday, bless him! Each to their own though.

    I would get him a little something too. We have a great shop near us, B&M, they do craft packs with paints and 8 posters (Ben 10, etc) for under £1!! Wilco is also really good for craft packs, I've got all my mindees a pack for Christmas, they're 98p!! (makes me sound like a right cheap skate! lol)

    Good luck with him.

    Must be something in the air as I had a lady on Monday who wanted to come that night for me to take her child the next day, when I couldnt see her that night she then asked if i could take him on Tuesday anyway.
    I said I didnt feel comfortable doing this. So she is coming tonight when I have my dd and niece here to discuss everything. Hope all goes well as he is also my first mindee too..
    Fingers crossed for me

    Thanks everyone, im excited but also nervous.
    I'll get him something small, i know he likes books, so may very well nip into B&M and pick up a bargain. Great start to minding.
