🎆APPRECIATION POST🎆
My main reason for becoming a childminder was to spend more time with my beautiful boys. We didn’t really speak about it potentially having a negative impact on them and it turned out, we didn’t need to.
Samuel was just under a year old when I started, Joshua was two and both of them just accepted that new people were in their home. They understood that other children would need my attention and love. They shared their toys without question and even shared their beds! They didn’t do this reluctantly or just because they knew they had to, Joshua and Samuel wanted to and were excited to welcome someone new into our lives. They’d get birthday and Christmas gifts and as soon as they’d opened them, tell me they can’t wait to play with it with their friends.
Our wonderful babies just fully accepted that their home, their safe space, was for other boys and girls as well and words can never explain how proud I am of them 🥹🥰💙💙
