Hi guys, I'm Earthymama, childminding in South Wales, near Newport. I'm one of the 'grandmother' generation of childminders; I began so that I could help my children out and also have time for my elderly parent.

I wish I had done this years ago; I don't think I could go back to being stuck in one environment all day long.

Of course there are ups and downs; the month when no-one paid me on time; when the kids hate each other; when it rains for two weeks without stopping!! These are compensated by the way littles run in without a backward glance; when they are still talking about a visit to a museum or the pizza we cooked weeks ago. (I met a grandparent recently who said my word is law in their house; No, Emama says those drinks make you poorly!! You must say Good morning in the shop. I bet they all hate me!!)

I must tell you I can kill any thread on MN stone dead, so expect this to be last post on this topic!!

So, hi guys, hope to meet up at some point?

It took ages from when I sent the CRB forms off, I had to chase them up a couple of times, the CRB's got lost and had to fill more forms in... NIGHTMARE!!!Angry!!!

Overall, it was about 4 months!! If your still waiting, I'd recommend you chase it!

Isyhan · 13/06/2006 18:55
