    ha ha thanks for all your support, I clearly survived as today is a new day! by the end of the day, my hands were shaking from stress, no joke. so glad it's over....I only have two today, will be a piece of cake! haven't had a day that stressful in a long time! to top it off I had some personal stuff going on as well, which made everything 10 times worse. (as you all know, because we work from home, it is VERY difficult to leave "home at home") that was that topper on the cake...oh no, wait a minute...the topper on the cake was the dad who showed up two hours late for pickup, when his kid was the most dificult to handle, 4 months old and cries if she is not being fed EVERY 1.5 hours (not kidding) or just changed or being held. This kid is so far a major thorn in my side, and as much as I adore ALL the kids, it takes a lot for me to feel that way! big time stress trying to care for her, and keep her happy! Dad has enough nerve picking up two hours late to ask me 20 questions, "did you shush her" "did you hold her to your side and sway her"? "did you burp her'? two hours late for pick up and dares to question my methods with his screaming infant while standing in my door (not leaving) at one point even unpacked her from her car seat to try and "sway" her and "shush" her....my husband sitting there with this look on his face like "leave already"....due to her screams I had two others crying and trying to make supper while he works on his kid at my door......felt like saying, "could you pack up your screaming "pain in the @$$ kid and go home?" so glad that is done!!!!!!!

    2 hours late? Then he was rude? That is unacceptable, completely unacceptable. You are being too nice. Today you should have handed them a letter of warning to shape up or ship out. I would have been the angriest HDCP these parents had ever seen last night, Kidlove. Don't let people, especially clients walk all over you like that!

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.
