I have one 4 year old dcg who just started kindergarten. She is part time. She comes here Tues, Thurs, and (almost) every other Friday. She pays per day.
I recently had a new spot open and advertised for another school aged child so that my 4 year old dcg has a playmate.
I had a new family inquire about the spot. I was considering adding in my contract that this be a 3 day minimum/week spot. (wheter child attends 3 days that week or not) They said no thank and I lost that family.

What can I do to accomodate school aged kids who only come part time (as they are in school the other days of the week) and still have a consistant paycheque from them. I feel if I do not add the 3 days/week minimum then I lose out on Stat holidays and the part timer is just not worth my time.

Does anybody have kids who come on alternate days? What do you do?
