One hour?? What's the point? I'm guessing they have an appt? I'd allow it but would find it strange lol

I can't remember if I added it to my contract but I do ask parents to drop off by 9am so we can start our day. I'm sporadic (due to my back pain I don't like to plan too far in advance in case it's a day I need to rest my back) and sometimes plan outings the morning of so I like to know who is here and at what time. If I know they're coming late it's not as annoying as just waiting around for them.

I also stress to the parents that for their child to get the most out of my program, they should be here in the morning. We do the "bigger and funner" stuff then as afternoon pickups start shortly after nap so it's usually free play/outdoor play/small activities
