    Thanks. I am going to tell dcm tonight that I technically don't open until 7:00 but was accomodating them and now its becoming too much. I willl say that if they are needing care before 6:45 then it will be an extra fee. I'm sure that will nip this in the bud.
    I also need to figure out how to put a stop to dcd walking right into my kitchen uninvited. If I invite someone in that is one thing but I thought he had left this morning, instead he followed me into the kitchen where my hubby was in his jammies eating breakfast. Hubby was NOT impressed and I didn't even bother with introductions.

    This irritates me. This is where respect comes in. Just because our businesses are in our homes does not mean that all areas of our homes are being used for business purposes. My family has a right to enjoy their home and have privacy.

    As far as the early drop off, I guess I'm pretty much going to say the same thing. Tell them if they want to drop off early that you will need to charge an extra fee as this is over and above. I would make it a steep fee at that, something like $15 dollars for each half hour you need to open early. Watch how fast they don't want to come early anymore.
