Right - this is my 1st enquiry so over joyed but need help!
Mum wants me to pick there ds up from another school to which my ds goes to on these days
tues 3.15 - 5.30
wed 3.15 - 5.40
thurs 3.15 - 5.30
problem my son finishes nursery at 3.15 also but was thinking I could ask my sons nursery to let him out at 3 on these days.?
Then mum is expecting in Feb and wants me to have baby same days but all day from 9am.
Bare in mind though my son will start school in Sept and I wont be able to get him to finish early though my sons school does offer rap around so I could use that and advertise more for this other school as they dont offer rap around. Ive told mum I charge £3.50 p/t.
What would u all do?Do u think its too much hassle? Bare in mind Im desperate for business and money??
All advice and opinions welcome

all went well with the mum!
She happy with my charges and even said she will pay me from 3-6 even though he wont be here until 3.25 and prob gone by 5.30. She has agreed to the non refundable deposit of a mth's fee.
She is coming back next Tues with her son to introduce us and see what he thinks - she is happy to sign contracts then if son happy!
Fingers crossed it all works out. she seemed inpressed with my portfolio and said she has never been presented with one before with past CM.

WOW fantastic!!!
one thing tho'..enure you are NOT responsable for him whilst on his taxi ride to yours(as shes said 3 instead of 3.25) as i would hate to think something happend on way home, and even more so if he were 'thought' to be in your care at this time!..just put in agreement, that until he enters your home, he is responability of school/parent...fab tho
