Being taken advantage of

[5 Little Monkeys]

I just recently (well in the summer) had a turnover of daycare children. I was closing at 530 with my old group, my late child left so I switched to 515. Then my turnover happened so I changed to 5pm. I don't want to change again as most parents I interview need 5pm anyways. I don't mind being open till 5 but for the most part (almost always 4-5x a week) I am done at 430pm. I don't mind if parents do an errand every now and then as long as they are here by 5 which usually happens anyways.

I have 2 families that if dad is picking up because of the mom's shifts, need 445pm pick up. So even if I were to change my hours (for the 3rd time in a year lol) I would have to stay open till 445 anyways.
