Don't want to be over capacity however don't want to get screwed either

I put this on the original post as well but didn't know if it would get seen. I just think this is a good lesson in listening to your gut and putting your needs first.

UPDATE

So I had accepted the 2 new full time kids, spoke with the mom of the 18 mos old (she said they were going to stay and thought about it and it doesn't make sense to switch daycares just for convenience sake, but my gut told me otherwise). I told my part timer they were moving down to 1 day a week (they were OK with this but not thrilled but I told her I thought a spot would become available in Jan).

Today the 18 mos old gave notice. A spot opened up at her work daycare and she said they are going to take it. She said they are also "restructuring her position at work" she will need to work longer hours as well so they need the hours a centre can offer. I spoke to part time mom that they are back at 2 days (very happy). Sad to see this kid leave though, real sweet heart.

Glad I went with my gut and put my business first!
