    One hard lesson we learn in our business is that it IS A BUSINESS. We use our hearts for the children but our business minds to make the financial decisions and to make sure the parents follow the rules of our contracts. That's the best lesson I've learned so far anyway.

    So if I were you I would fill the space. Be careful to always let families know that we have unexpected events happen in our business like new babies and families moving away, etc. So always let families who want you to promise a future space know that it isn't really possible to make long term promises since this is an ever changing business. Don't feel guilty about filling the space now and give the other family notice that they must make other arrangments. It isn't personal, it's a business decision.

    I have a pregnant Mom in my daycare right now asking me what will be happening in Feb. 2014. I can't answer that question!

A few tips...

Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
