Hi everyone
Oh I feel really sick and fed up. Part of me wonders if I'm being over protective or paranoid but this is the situation:
1st Nursery let me down a week or so ago so spent all last week looking into other nurseries and childminders
Found a nice childminder but she couldn't do the days I needed (she minds for a friend of mine too)
Found a nice nursery close by - good location for us, it's only just opened in December. Went ahead and signed paperwork today for DD to start once a wk beginning of Feb then 3 days a week from beginning of March.
My friend just called now and told me that her childminder (the one I liked but couldn't do the days) used to go to the same childminder meetings as the owner of this new nursery and said she (the owner) was the only one of them that always had spaces - that she wasn't very popular and always left her mindees in their car seats whilst everyone else's mindees played. She spent the whole meeting on the phone trying to get new business.
The owner of this new nursery is quite hands on in the nursery as she cooks the meals daily and she used to be a social worker. She is counted in the ratio figures and has been in the nursery 2 out of the 3 times I've been there (every time I have turned up without an appointment).
Do you think I should re-think my choice of nursery? I mean it is brand new and I've liked the manager there who is a (young) girl who will be also looking after DD .
Thanks
Lucy
