I don't know if this is a "AIBU" or not I just need advice.
I'm a babysitter/ cleaner/ pet sitter for my friend while she works. I go to her house 3 times a week from 8-8 and look after her daughter who is nearly 3, my friend allows me to bring my daughter who is nearly 4 years old to work with me, and this has been the aagreement the last 6 months, never had any issues. I look after her daughter like she was my own and complete all housework duties before my friend gets home and she is generally very happy with me.
There was an incident last week where my daughter and my friends daughter had a argument and there was hitting and pushing from both sides. I immediately broke it up and told them to both say sorry. Job done and sorted, or so I thought...
I then get told this morning that my friends housemate (who also has a daughter) told her my daughter has been being 'violent' to friends daughter and throwing stones at her on a regular basis. When I said to my friend I've never seen that sort of behavior before, she said the housemate had seen my daughter like this and had apprently told me and I ignored it. This is definitely not true and if it is, I was not informed about it so how could of I done anything?
My situation is now is that the housemate and I, were, very good friends and I do not understand at all why she'd lie like that. All shes done is caused tension between me and my friend. Basically, my friend has just said shed rather I not bring my daughter anymore, my problem is is that I can't afford childcare on the wage I am paid and have nobody who will babysit. I'm really upset at the whole situation and don't know what to do....I don't really know why my friend is taking the housemates word over mine. Do I approach it with the housemate (who I thought was my friend) and what do I say? Sorry for it being long. I know some of you may say its not a big deal but it is to me, as this is my job and both friends mean a lot to me. I just can't understand why this has been said. What would you do?
