    Makes sense. I thought about doing it that way but then in a way I guess I thought it was asking a bit much of the parents. I know I'm in business for myself and need to learn to not to get my emotions invovled so much but sometimes it's hard. I guess if someone wants you bad enough they're going to pay, right!

    But the parents aren't asking to much to hold a spot for months for them while you loose hundreds if not thousands of dollars? You are not asking to much to charge a holding fee, your services are worth something and you're right...if they want you bad enough, they will pay. I have never had an issue with a parent not wanting to pay a holding fee.

A few tips...

If you visited or if you're using a childcare provider found on DaycareBear, do not hesitate to leave a review. This will most certainly help other parents!
Updates
We expect providers to keep their listing and available openings up-to-date. However, to prevent oversights, openings expire after 45 days.
