[crayolamom]

Should I explain myself or just tell them there is going to be a rates increase. OMG im so nervouuusssss!!!! ugh What should I do about te family I told their rates would never increase (I said this before Bill 10)

I am also tempted to raise my rates - not just because of Bill 10 but because this job is hard and the prices of groceries and crafting keep going up.

However - most of my families are at $35 also and I worry that going up $5 a day would be a lot for parents to handle considering that would mean an extra $100 a month. That's pretty significant to a family to adjust to so I am on the fence. $5 a day doesn't sound like much but monthly it makes a big impact.

Then I feel guilty because some of my parents have 2 kids enrolled and they would essentially have that increase x2. Sometimes I have a hard time keeping my business hat on but I am really seriously thinking of putting a letter out for a January 1st increase.
