Hi everyone!
I opened my daycare in January 2013 and I am happy to say that it is going well well except one thing... My hours.
Initially I was operating 7am-5:30pm. I have some parents who drop off at 6:45/6:50 which so that they can make the 7:13 Go Train and they pick up 3:30-4:30 latest so that is fine with me.
Currently I have 3 full timers in my care who after their initial issues with transition are doing great! I also have a few families who are part timers/on callers and I have a Wed child who I have posted previously about. This Wed child is on a completely different schedule than what I have here and has been here since March and still screams for Mama the entire time and refuses to play with the others. His hours are 9:45-6. He is the LAST one here for a good hour and its really beginning to take its toll on me as I am going since 6:45.
I am going to give the parents notice that my hours are changing to 5pm close effective July 1. Is that enough notice? I realize that its quite possible that they decide to find alternate care but for 1 day a week it simply not worth the aggravation anymore.
Thanks in advance!
