What a nice change!

Hiya all

I had such a nice comment off a new parent today that I had to share it with you all

We were discussing fees and contracts and she said she could not believe how little I charged for the responsible and important job that we do

(by the way I charge £3.50 per hour)

I thought this was so refreshing after all the negative comments I have had about childminding not being a proper job etc, etc,

She made my day ;D

Hi Polly

That is so nice and it is great when a parent understands what we do

It is comments like that , that always make it worthwhile and make us realise why we became a childminder in the first place

Hi Polly

Yes that really was a nice thing for her to say and I am glad because I think you are going to have a really good working relationship with this lady.

Its nice to know that some parents recognise what we do!!

Sounds like a nice parent to have!!

Can I swop and have your parent?

Actually, that's really mean of me - the Mum I have now is actually lovely - just prone to taking liberties!!! However, she does really appreciate me so am being v. unfair to her.

Sounds like the start of a beatiful relationship!!!
