I see it as a red flag that she wants to dictate when she wants to pay.

Just my 2 cents.

Yep, I agree. YOUR business, YOUR rules. YOU make the contract and business decisions NOT the parents. You don't go into Walmart and negotiate payment so you don't do it in daycare.

If YOU want weekly payments or monthly payments then YOU choose and go with that. As for the holding fee......if YOU want a holding fee (and rightly so) then she pays it or she finds daycare elsewhere.
