Never seen my 3yo comfortable with anyone as Mande
Where should I start from? Leaving your kid specially the little 1 with anyone specially a starnger is never easy. I was really worried as she is very shy and hasn’t started speaking that well. I was viewing many childminders profile but god knows why, I always ended up in Mandeep and another experienced childminder’s profile. But ofcourse after seeing not just her good reviews but registered, satisfied profile on the website, I felt that positive vibe. She replied my queries and I explained my needs and about my little 1 to Mandeep on childcare message chat. We arranged an appointment to see the place and she was more than happy to show her certificates too.
I was very embarassed on our 1st meeting. While I was explaining about my little 1’s shy nature, there she was already making herself comfortable and playing with Mandeep’s son 😳. I was so surprised to see that. She was even trying to communicate with Mandeep. I knew that moment that she is the 1. I didn’t take another moment to say ‘Yes’.
Then there was a problem as it was time to leave. My luttle 1 refused to leave🤦♀️. She started crying. We had to carry her out.
Everyday she leaves a happy child whenever she sees Mandeep. Mandeep always send me the updates of her day via messages and videos. I can see her having a great time there. At the end of the day, though she’s happy to see me, she always runs after her car saying, ‘Bye friend. Bye car’.
It feels like there’s a 2nd home for her when I am at work and I can just relax and focus at work and study.
Thank you so much Mandeep.
