    Well...I do charge for some of my sick days. I have 7 paid personal days in my contract per year for if I am sick or my kids etc. I am human and the kids bring so many germs that I do get sick sometimes. I also charge for all stats and 2 weeks of my vacation. I charge when the child is sick or away on vacation as well. I need and deserve to have a bit of stability in income just like most people have some paid sick days. It is a hard job and we are not paid that much. Part of having kids is having to take days off work now and then to care for them when they are sick or the daycare provider is not available. I do feel bad when I have to close, but I do not think it is unfair to charge for some of these days.

A few tips...

Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
