    Are you sure about that... it sounds like a provider that is still not 100% certain of her own decisions and can not make her break from the family. At the same time if she is that emotionally connected to the child she may truly feel the need to know that she is going to a home that meets her standards. The mom may very well have talked to her about the interviews she had done and gotten feedback. I have had parents who are moving on for reasons of moving out of my area or a child going to school etc that have asked my interpretation of what they heard as in would I have taken it the same way. I try to remain as neutral as possible but for sure I can read between the lines of what the provider is saying and what is likely meant cause we all do it in interviews.

    As long as child is just being picked up by the woman then I would let it go and have no problem with it. I would make sure that all communication is with the mom via email and not through the other provider as in limited info at pickup unless it effects the next hour she is with her like child just woke up and hasn't had a snack yet.
