I suppose I should count my blessings that they cancelled on me BEFORE I wasted time actually meeting with them, but this is the second time in 2 weeks I've had someone cancel the day of. I just got an email and I was supposed to meet with them tonight at 6. My house is extra clean, extra copies of my contract are ready, etc etc...I'm just annoyed!
Both sets of parents have sounded like exactly the kind of clients I want, too...considerate, planning childcare in advance (both have wanted a space in September), really liking my ad, and I was pretty excited to meet with them.
They both had legitimate reasons, one didn't realize that their child has to go the public school that is closest to them, which isn't the one I do school runs to, and one just got a space in a center that is on the way to mom's work, and apparently already has the child's cousin, so I understand, I'm just feeling pretty discouraged.
