I understand the need for innovation and advancements in technology, but it seems to me that people like Elon should look at raising everyone on the planet up, instead of reinventing the childminder, the taxi and the bus. A pause on futurism, and an acceleration on dealing with basic issues of need.
You wouldn't hire Piers Anthony as a childminder, shall we say.
Toddler diaries: nothing but teething misery (and occasional spreadsheets) #kidlit#kidlitArt#babyDiaries#toddlerDiaries#sketchbook#sketchbookDiaries#parentingComics#parenting#dailySketchbook#soloMum#soloMumByChoice#smbc#soloParent#soloParentByChoice#teething
It drives me crazy. The childminder does this and I'm always in panic mode. Please, please childcare is still on, right?
Probably her childminder 🤣
They’re just so nice!!! All primary school teachers turned forest school leaders. Set up our city’s first outdoor nursery! Such an excellent start to his ‘formal’ education! (Although his childminder who had him from babyhood is wonderful too and has taught him lots of things.)
But that in itself cuts down childcare costs - an hour less of a childminder each morning and evening adds up quickly
Toddler diaries from last Autumn: illness season very much at hand: but toddler takes a step and I have an almond croissant #kidlit#kidlitArt#babyDiaries#toddlerDiaries#sketchbook#sketchbookDiaries#parentingComics#parenting#dailySketchbook#soloMum#soloMumByChoice#smbc#soloParent
Being “forced” to walk my youngest to the childminder to give the pup some exercise is setting my days up so nicely at the moment. May the autumn mornings remain crisp and fresh and my days stay productive!
Me, wide awake and setting up my calendar for the academic year, definitely not becoming unhinged at 13 weeks plus Inset Days of school holidays 🙃 Fortunately I have a great childminder on our doorstep and many supportive friends to fill the gaps, but still. #womeninSTEM#soloparenting
