"Most of the time I pick them up from the daycare center at 4 p. m. And look after the children until around 6 p. m.," says Ms. Miksch. "But it happens that I get an SMS at half past nine, whether I can stay for half an hour longer. And I would like to do that, because I have no real obligations anymore."
The Leihoma knows that Elias ’and Leonie's father, who is employed by a partner company of Famplus, is very happy about their flexibility. In return, she is happy to do meaningful things that are being paid for with children's laughter and affection.
At the Fritzsche family, Leihoma Miksch is employed on a mini-job-based manner, elsewhere she visits a young single parents and her baby on behalf of a non-profit organization as a volunteer. "You need a task in life and you have to get out of your own four walls," explains the woman, bubbling in front of drive and lust for life, who no longer found a fixed job after a family -related move to Berlin last year.
Nevertheless, Leihoma Miksch doesn't struggle with her fate. On the contrary, she enjoys the hours together with the two children, which she sincerely put into her heart. "I also bring the children from the daycare center to a birthday with my car when they are invited somewhere. I really enjoy it," reports the 61-year-old, who is far too sprightly to just sit in the park and turn your thumbs.
The parents of Elias and Leonie are particularly pleased that Ms. Miksch is not only flexible in the evening, but also expressly offered that she is quickly on hand when a child gets sick or is otherwise a need. "I can be reached at any time and have set up a call forwarding so that I can get the calls on the cell phone on the go," says Leihoma Miksch.
What if she wants to travel or the family goes on vacation? "Then we speak in time, it works seamlessly," assures Elias ’and Leonies Leihoma, who describes himself as a" travel aunt "and, with all love for children, also has other hobbies. Perhaps this is also your recipe for success for the joy of child customs - a good balance between your own interests and the willingness to get involved in two small beings. "That is enough for me from the occupancy and I'm pretty exhausted when I look after the children for four hours at a time. That is a great responsibility," Lehoma Miksch honestly admits. A responsibility that she has as a life -experienced woman who has an adult daughter herself, however, has freely.
"I'm doing something good and is needed," says Angela Miksch, who has found a lot of pleasure in working as a loan. The two families that they visit regularly can count themselves lucky.
