Ok so as you all know if had so many hassles these past few months, This one family that have been with me since March 1 ft and a before school, asked me to give them a "summer rate" since they both will be ft. I was being overly cheap and gave them my price. Tonight she tells me they are not paying the amount! They are going to find somebody else possibly cheaper!! The price i gave them was $50, thats for 2 ft kids and 9 hours a day!!! I even told them i was taking a huge income loss by doing this for them! She wants to pay$30 total for both of them! So now i'm left with 1 ft only 4 days/ week and not guarnteed to stay as moms job was cut with the new budget cuts! Ugh no successful interviews, and all the money spent on new activities for the summer months! I sure didn't see this coming! Sorry for ranting, nobody else seems to understand how much time and effort i have put into my daycare to make things fun for all ages, now i'm left empty by her being cheap! I know 2 ft kids at $30 is just not feesable (sp) and that's with me providing everything! So frustrating and heart breaking!!
