I agree with this. Hopefully it has worked out and things will be great going forward. At this point, I'd just carry on with her as per usual. I wouldn't bring it up or ask her about it anymore, BUT I would be sure not to bend on any policies AT ALL over the next few months. The fact that she asked, got an answer she didn't like, and then asked you three more times, tells me that she may be one to push the limits. Do you get paid in advance? Otherwise, I could totally see her agreeing for the full time spot today, but then writing you cheques for the 2-3 days her child actually attended come April making you hunt her down for money etc etc. I think she's just going to push until she gets what she wants or goes somewhere else. And if she's asking for exceptions to other policies and you give in, it's just going to make her feel like she can push for the part time again.
