Need advice for termination letter

[5 Little Monkeys]

I am so sorry you are having to deal with parents like this. I just recently had my first experience similar to you and it was horrible!

I spoke to them over the phone and in person. I wanted very little said over text or email for two reasons....1.tone is lost over text and misinterpretation happens and 2. I didn't want her to save any of my emails/texts

I have the same thing in my contract as playfelt and when I said I was terming due to that she started asking me how she was being detrimental to my well being....oh where to start?? lol. It was very hard to stay professional with her! I eventually just had to tell her that we would have to agree to disagree. I defended myself against factual things but when it came to explaining why I thought she was disrespectful towards me we had to stop talking about it. I felt one way about her attitude and she felt another way and there was no changing either of our minds about how and what happened.

They are likely mad that they are loosing a great provider and they know it! Good riddance!!

I would email the termination letter now. There is no way you should have to put up the behaviour from the parents let alone the child! I really hope you don't have the child back into your care.

They are done..... and it felt great!!! I feel so much more relaxed now knowing that I don't have to put up with their nonsense anymore! This is the first time I've had to do this, and I am proud that I stuck to my guns!

Nice!! How did it go??

[JennJubie]

It went as expected, they were immature and disrespectful again. I said what I needed to say, no more, no less.

Now obviously she's not welcome here anymore. Did I mention that she blew up at me in front of my own kids? How would you write up an immediate termination notice for this situation?

I wouldn't tolerate that either - I won't be shouted at by anyone, especially in my own house.

I would e-mail her immediately...


"Subject to the terms in our contract (scanned signed copy attached), I am hereby terminating care, effectively immediately.

As per the agreement we have, care can and will be terminated without notice, in the event of a day care parent being aggressive verbally or physically to any person at my premises. "
