I'm pretty open with them. I would just tell them like it is. I would explain that I expect at least two weeks of transitioning but it can take longer for some. I would let them know that at this point their child cries when I am not holding them. I would ask if they do this at home and if they do, I would suggest they start weaning it to make dc life easier on both child and you. I would explain now that if child isn't transitioned within xx amount of time (for me it's a month or so) than I will have to ask that they find alternate care. I have started to explain all of this during the interview after dealing with a child who cried 24/7. His parents and I now look back at that time and are so glad it's over LOL. He turned out to be my easiest child ever!! He's now gone as mom is on mat leave but we have a playdate planned for tomorrow! It does get better![]()
