That was a pretty mean thing for him to say, though I can understand where he's coming from. For a parent, who isn't familiar with this business and the stages of transition, as we are, I would imagine it can be quite distressing to see your child flipping out at the sight of her provider. That being said, it's totally not you! I've seen it sooooo many times, as have you. My nephew attends my daycare now and has been since June. For the first couple weeks, it was tough, with him crying quite a lot. At one point, as soon as he saw my house, he'd just lose the plot entirely. And this is my own nephew! He loves me and I know he does and is completely fine now...hardly says goodbye to my sister. But it certainly upset her to see him so upset. I know she was wondering what was up, but she trusted me when I said it was completely normal and it would pass.....which it did. Now he often cries when he's forced to leave
I think the letter Bluerose posted is perfect. But replace them first if you have time. It may be that they're thinking of pulling anyway, so try to beat them to the punch and save a few bucks.
Good luck!
