I had that happen once. They had another home daycare lined up but that caregiver replaced them two weeks before the mom was set to go back to work with a full time child (my mom only needed part time at that time) They have been with me for 1.5 years and have been full time for over a year. The DCB and his parents are just amazing and I am so happy that it turned out that way. Maybe it was another provider that did this to them?
