I have had the TV on a bit more than usual too this winter. Who can blame us though, this winter has been very hard with so many days that are not nice enough to enjoy the outdoors. I don't see a...

I find it's easier to plan meals if I have set nights. Some people may find this boring but it really works for me. So,
-Mondays are a busy night for us so that is a sandwich night, I just have to...

Since your contract gives a specific date it is effective until, then yes, the raise in rates does seem odd. I know many providers do raise rates in Jan but I personally only raise them for clients...

I always feel personally rejected when parents do this, even though I know it's not a good way to handle it. I just wish they would actually say what it is they do not agree with r what is holding...

I think there's a difference between a child expressing his feelings and child who is crying to get his way. I think separating him is a good idea but I would never applaud crying. I get the whole...

Well hello!

Don't do it just to please the family. You telling them no because it is against the law should actually be seen as a positive by families in your care. Make your decision based on what is best for...

Hi! I am newly registered too but have creeped on here for a while. Welcome!

I am impressed that she came on here to stand her ground and clarify statements made by her own client. I like her frankness and her business sense. It's kind of nuts that this is even playing out on...

I do for sure! We have our busy days where we go to the park and do crafts and lots of activities but some days you just have to sit back and just let them play. You can stick a fancy term on it like...

I think your provider is just trying to maximize her income. If you can commit to certain days/week and pay that flat fee so she can fill around you, why is that a problem, especially if you will...

I know some providers offer this and more power to them. Rates seem to be all over the place. Personally there is not enough money in the world for me to have kids here when I am off.

I am flabbergasted that she just took the mittens!! How presumptuous!

Yes casual care is often more expensive because you pay a premium for having that flexibility because it is difficult for a provider to fill in another child around your needs. And so often that spot...

Oh, don't feel bad. Your question was very valid and you were very respectful in the way you asked. Most parents don't ask why we do the things we do and just assume we are being difficult. It sounds...

Have to say I agree with the other providers that her policies seem sound. You are lucky she gives up you till 11. I know some providers who want you there by 9. Good providers have thigns to done, a...

Actually Pane-Vino is a catering company in Toronto and i'll bet the link takes you to their website. I find it weird that the admin started this thread and this company jumped right in. Is this...

No I don't pay. Maybe it has changed since I started mine a couple years ago?? When you log in to edit and you go in to manage your pages and it lists all of the pages down the page, do you see the...
