Well the first year is the hardest and I too had several bumps along the way... My first client lasted three weeks and then she stiffed me a weeks pay ... Even though I kept telling her I need to be paid in advance she always forgot then she bolted... Then a month later I got a full time and a flex and an after school .... Then I coasted with that for awhile then I signed two more families and held their spots for 3.5 and 5.5 months with only a two week deposit and both sent thier kids for integration prior to start date and then both pulled before starting and my after school was done at the end if June so I was back to a ft and a flex ..... I was very discouraged
.... Then at the end of last summer I got another before and after And last Xmas my flex left .... But then a miracle happened and I got lots of hits on my ads and signed on 4 new families to start in Jan and I have been full ever since and I am just starting to interview for sept as I have one leaving for jk. It will happen when you least expect it.... just have faith.....and as Reggio would say .... Sending you filler up vibes....; )
