I enjoyed today but means have to work tomorrow which normally wouldn't. Kids would have been in daycare today, but aren't tomorrow so are with mum and dad. I got the day with them so can't complain but doesn't really equate to extra day which takes shine off a bit DD insisted on writing a card for the Queen for her birthday which was cute.

Will have to ask daycare about the five day fortnight - I saw in another thread that you can get CCB and CCR for nannies through certain agencies - I never realised this. Just need to be clear on my options prior to contract renewal discussions. I asked for way too little money for this role before, silly as now hard to raise it much.
