DD 3.5 told me on the way home she had her knickers pulled down by cm's (year 1) son today. On Mondays the cm's assistant picks DD up from school and gives her tea until I pick her and baby DS up about 2 hours later. DD told me this incident happened while she was standing up watching tv, that he said (singsong voice) "I've pulled your knickers down" and that the cm then told him to "come with her". Apparently he didn't touch her bottom. The cm has not mentioned it.
I feel very angry about this. It happened to me at a similar age in the playground, little boys will be boys it seems but I still remember the humiliation and feeling of powerlessness, this really is something i never hoped my daughter would have to experience let alone in the safe childcare environment I thought I was placing her in.
A bit of an AIBU I suppose as I am tempted to call the childminder this evening and tell her that I won't be letting DD round again, as of next week she will be going to after school club instead.
BUT I'd prefer she was in a home environment with her brother - however not one where she experiences this kind of bother. Removing her also leaves us in a tricky position re school holidays as the long term plan was that DD would go to her then. Again I'm not keen if she is going to be left to watch tv while and have her knickers yanked.
Time to look for an alternative cm or even a nanny? Thoughts please.
