    I do not have standard open and close hours. I require parents to contract for specific times.

    If a parent works from 9-3 I contract with them from 8:30-3:30 and do NOT allow them to use anymore...

    I have had both equal boys and girls and had times in which I had more boys or more girls but I wouldn't worry about it.... I've had lots of rough tom-boy type girls and lots of shy and introverted...

    I feel lucky that it works for me too. I've read many threads from providers who struggle to make ends meet and work far more hours than they wish to simply because they can't afford to take the...

    Same here. Except I am only closed for 2 weeks a year. I have no idea what is and isn't the norm in my area as I do what works for me, not necessarily what everyone else is doing.

    I get that...

    I would only charge families for the actual weeks they were enrolled.
    I don't think it's fair to charge them for time/days they will no longer be clients.
    I guess it depends on how your contract...

    Space is available 50 weeks a year.

    Tuition is also expected 50 weeks a year, regardless of what a parent does for a living.

    I'd take the one that sleeps. In my experience, sleep issues are the hardest to deal with.

    The other issue seems "fixable" as the child ages and becomes more secure and comfortable in their...

    I feel like I stepped into the middle of a hornets nest.

    The thread was fine until a long standing member posted that "plugging" someone's business in this manner was lame.

    Did she know ALL...

    Some one pointed me to this forum because there was a thread posted about (Judy) a daycare coach. I wasn't aware of Judy's comings and goings and whatever other drama or non-drama has or hasn't been...

    It's funny that you mentioned Judy here today. I was just telling a friend of mine about her. My friend is starting a home child care and asked me if I knew anyone that could mentor or help her...

    I don't think I was implying that anyone was telling parents how to spend their days. ???

    I was stating MY opinion about how I operate.

    I am also fully aware that all jobs have pros and...

    I don't care if the child figures out that she could use bad behavior to get her mom to pick up.

    I also strongly disagree that some days, this kind of thing is just part of the job.

    It's not...

    Wow! I can't believe a 3 year old would act that way!!! What do her parents say?

    I agree. Any time someone asks me about discounts I just say that ALL children receive the same level of quality care so all children are charged accordingly.

    I am in the U.S. so forgive me if this has been asked before, but why would a provider NOT want to be licensed? What is the upside to staying unregulated or unlicensed?

    I had a parent give me a gift she stole from her place of work..... Long story but I am 100% sure it was stolen and 100% sure, she had no idea I would know. But I do.

    That is by far the weirdest...
