last week I had a parent ask if she could only bring her child 3 days instead of 5, so she could spend more time with her. The days would be different each week depending on the mothers hours. As a mother I understand 100% with the mom wanting to spend more time with the kid. I just told the mom that I would be marking the child as here every day (Mon to Fri), so I get paid for all 5 days. Her child has to be here 3 days a week, unless sick. She also has to let me know the week before hand which days she is going to be here.

we will see how this goes.

but i would never had agreed with this if i was only getting paid for only the days she was here.
so i would tell the parents if they want the schedule to be changeable then they have to pay for all 5 days.
