Hi,
I’ve just been reading a blog post by Rinch who worked at a childcare facility in Tibet. Luckily running a home daycare isn’t quite like this.
Here’s an excerpt:
“I have a new job! I work as a volunteer at the Rogpa centre which offers free childcare to recent Tibetan refugees so that the mum’s can go out to work. I’m enjoying my job but g’damn its hard work, 30 kids and only 5 carers! On the first day I got pissed all over (literally all over my leg) and had to change 2 pooey nappies….And we’re not talking nice throw away pampers we’re talking cloth nappies….no wet wipes…and lots of chunky exploding bums! Ah well I suppose its all good karma!”
You can read the whole thing here: Mummy to Many
Talk soon,
Mary Nightingale
