    Sometimes client families and providers are simply not a good fit. You gave this one a go, and it didn't work out. That's okay. If nothing else these kind of challenges provide great learning experiences, and make us better providers.

    During nap time type up a very brief termination notice. Along the lines of this is notice that the last day of care for 'siblings' will be Feb.27th. Payment for care is still due whether the children attend or not during this time. Should any further policies be broken, or behaviour issues take place during this time then the provider may enforce immediate termination.

    Once the kids are dressed and ready to go, have letter on hand. Hand it over letting them know it is their two weeks notice, and that if they have any questions they may email you later. I would avoid over explaining.

    It IS hard. Especially so the first time. It gets better. You will be amazed by the weight you will have off your shoulders and this feeling of relief you will have before long. Maybe not tonight, but on that last day for sure.

    You can do this. Think of what advice you would give to the person dearest to you in this situation. You value their happiness right? Take the advise you would give them and follow it.
