We have all experienced weird interviews. I remember meeting a couple they were looking for care for their daughter, first they wanted full-time and the mom did tell me that she was off every second Friday but she would have no problem in paying me anyways. After, they leave, we communicated by e-mail back, now she wants 8 days instead of 10. She asked for my references call them and never call me back.

What I learnt is trust your instincts and we should always be in the driver's seat. If they are not a fit for your daycare, at the time of the interview you should just let them know. I also remember interviewing a family without their children, I took them on as clients become their father is my neighbors. The family was a nightmare and their boys were not a fit for my daycare. I also have another rule, meet the husband and wife, I tell them that I want to meet both of them with their child. One interview, I usually interview Saturday morning, my days are long enough, no need to conduct interviews in the evening.
