Well ive finally decided childminding isnt for me. Ive done quite a few jobs in my life but Ive never been treated so badly or taken so much for granted as i have been this last year by parents. So Im now looking for childcare for my daughter and believe you me I will have total respect for anyone who will be looking after my child. I will pay them on time, I will not be sending her with infectious illnesses, when i have to pick her up if she's sick I wont shout at her on the childminders doorstep for making me leave work, I wont walk into the childminders house and start eating fruit out of her fruitbowl without asking, I wont be sending my child to them in the same nappy that he/she sent them home in the night before. I could go on ranting but I wont. Im just relieved it has come to an end.
