hi guys just need your advise
looked after a little boy since he was 6 mths old he lives 30 miles away. anyway in april he left aged 2 as mum had a new baby and decided not to go back to work, she also has a 8 yr old boy who i looked after in school hols.
since april mum has come each week to the toddler group i go to then camps at mine all afto, she is breastfeeding baby and seems to feed all afto so i have to deal with 2 yr old plus my 1 yr old mindee.
today shes coming with 8 yr old to as he has finished school
my boys are still at school and my mindee sleeps 1-2pm so i should have a hours rest but i'm running round after her kids.
the mum is lovely but.........
am i just moaning

I would say that when your mindee goes to sleep it is quite time so her's need to find something quite to sit down and play with like colouring or watch a little tv.

When my younger mindees go down for a sleep after lunch the 3 1/2yr old sits quitely and watches a little tv as he has preschool in the morn so also needing a rest.

Have you specifically invited her?
If not then you need to have an excuse of errands you need to run or soemthing so you are not going straight home and then she cant come back.
Trying to work out if it is her coming back in the first place, spending all afternoon with you or bringing the older one that you are upset at.
