ok im coming to the end of the months trial period for the little boy i started minding (my 1st one).
he's 4.5 and is quite well behaved apart from runs off alot, can be quite moody (due to tiredness i think)
his mum has once not turned up with no phonecall etc and today was half an hour late because she didnt wake up. (she is lucky i wasnt on my way to birmingham as i had popped home for something after going out esp to meet her) her phone doesnt work so can never contact her but she is supposed to be sorting that out today.
she has asked if she can pay on a different day.
i will only be having him until sept at the very longest and it's £45 a week (he is my only mindee)
just wanted to hear from all you old timers to see if you think this is normal/ acceptable before the trial ends.
