Which would you choose - one full day of childcare with 2 Gchildren (ages 3 and 1) or 2 full days with each child on their own?

Okydokey08 - your description of your part in creating a beautiful family bond is humbling. What lucky children to have such a loving (and child centred) Grandmother. Made me feel quite ready!

I look after both now. Not when they were tiny babies together though. They are 3 and 4 now.

In the holidays my grandson is at home from nursery so I have him and our granddaughter.

Usually just granddaughter. Day will change in the New Year as she goes to pre nursery 2 days a week then.

Next September it will be holiday times and occasional weekend days. How it flies

If I had 2 , I'd looked after them as a pair as they'd be used to being together & I could plan trips / activities to build joint memories of being together with me !
