Exactly this. Except this year I added Rememberance Day as well since my husband is off. You can take any days you want to as long is it ic clear in your contract and parents know in advance which days you are closed. Everything is in my contract and it is right at the top listed out as to which days I am closed (I renew this yearly so I have the exact dates for the entire year listed). No surprises...no reason for complaint as parents agree to this when they sign on with me.
