Hi there
I'm having a bit of an internal debate with myself so I thought I would see what others do and if my idea is the done thing.
My son goes to a childminder two days a week. She is paid by the hour and is extremely good value for money.
She is a lovely lady and takes the children to various outings, on the bus and train etc (she doesn't drive)
Today when I picked my son up she informed me that she had taken them today to a cafe and got them all a sausage and chips tea. Totally fine with that, but it made me think - she pays for all of this stuff out of her own pocket. Trips out, entrance to soft plays etc and she never asks for any extra money. Her hourly rate would never be enough to cover all of that.
So I thought maybe I should put a little purse in his bag with some change in which I would tell her is for trips and snacks out etc which I will keep topped up. Does this sound like a good idea? Does anyone else do this?
