    It's true the families will always do what is best for them, so we have to learn to think as business women and the income we need to earn and do what is best for us. We can't always think with our hearts. But you do want to be up front and professional and make sure you are making a solid decision. Give the old family lots of notice if you let them go to be fair. I admit that I am like Reggio and stick with families to the end, which is usually JK, because I believe in loyalty, but sometimes you have to make difficult decisions.

    Girls, I think I left out the important part. When I interviewed the new family I told them that my current family is leaving in September so I won't be able to take them on and the new family wanted to start in August but they can wait for a month until the current family moves. I would never leave anyone in difficult situation and would never punish people cause they are honest.

    The thing is the current family can't say/don't wanna say anything re: leaving date in fact when we talk last time she said that there is a big possibility that they will still bring their son here as they are not moving far
    By the way, their contract is ending in July.

    I kind a lost my trust in them as they might come and say good bye after of course giving me the notice but then I will loose this new family.
