This was my thought too ~ cause seriously how can you know your provider is going on Mat leave on X date and not have a plan in place for it ~ my guess is that she might be planning on going on leave early however perhaps using 'paid sick or emergency leave' days by claiming her provider bailed on her and she has no back up verses starting her actual mat leave benefits.
