Sample Termination Letters

[Momof4]

How about: Get out of my house and never come back you crazy people!

Just kidding. I've only terminated twice and it was kind of mutually agreed upon verbally because I reached my limit with the children/parents at the same time they realized I was about to lose my mind! The reason for that is because I'm honest from day one about any issue that arises and if parents are not helping at home and working to improve their child for their child's own benefit then I can't help them. And if the parents are too demanding or have unreasonable expectations of me then it's best they find someone else. Because I give 100% daily and work hard in the evenings to prepare for the next day and if I'm not appreciated by the families I get very frustrated.

I'm not in this business to bang my head against a wall. I'm in this business to nurture and care for the children and families who share my values and morals and childrearing philosophies.

So make sure you don't ever feel guilty when you have to make the difficult decision to terminate. I like Crayola's letter. You are telling the truth, but don't go into great detail and you DO NOT have to explain yourself any further. It's a business decision.
