I told mom I open from 8 to 5pm and she is ok with that. She still needs to confirm drop off and pick up time from the bus stop.

Another reason I do not take before and after school is because parents usually expect a reduced rate when for me is a child using a spot that that could be paid full time, but in this case mom is willing to pay for a full time spot and the girl will not be using any of my 5 spots. In another forum someone was very kind to send me a link from a government webpage stating that kids over 10yo don't count in numbers.

I am also pregnant and I am afraid someone leaving before my delivery date just for that reason (even I'm only closing for 2 weeks). Also a dc mom told me she's trying to get pregnant so in a few months I guess will have an spot available when she goes on mat leave.
