Paying for absent child and provider cancels contract and keeps money???

[cfred]

First, I'm sorry your child has been so ill as to have missed 5 wks of daycare. It leads me to believe it might be serious and maybe your plates are full enough, without this added stress. I hope she/he is on the mend

Though I don't know all the ins and outs of the situation, or the relationship you had with your provider, I tend to agree that the move seems a little unsavoury. I'm not sure I'd be comfortable pulling a move like that, but on the same token, I tend to lean a little too far in the other direction. Like Momof4 said, depending on the wording of the contract, she may well be within her rights to do this, although, yes, it sounds a little sneaky. But AGAIN, not wanting to disparage a fellow provider unfairly, I really only know what's in these message windows.

Regardless, I'm terribly sorry for your family. It's a pretty awful feeling when you have the impression you've been screwed over.
