    I've seen you say this a few times and it always makes me curious. So if you have a child that is great in all other aspects and has a great family that follow rules but the child is 3/4 years old and outgrows nap, you terminate?

    First I have had this situation ... Sort of ... Parents kept asking to shorten the nap but the kid was miserable when I woke her up and she would scream very shrilly and wake some of the others so what I did was put her down last and woke her first and told them she only slept 45 mins and miraculously bedtime was a snap .... My set up is different in such each child has their own room and I have fans stragicly placed .... The op is stating all the children sleep in the same room so waking her early or keeping her up is not an prion cause she is not quiet and the other children deserve their rest period ... The provider also doesn't get a break .... This child is only 2.5 and needs a nap we are not talking about a 3.5-4 yr old ... She's 2! The parent needs to parent ! So to answer your question ... If I was in this situation I would tell the parent that I was not able to shorten the nap any further and if the parent gave me attitude then I would suggest another daycare or perhaps a centre would suit her needs better

A few tips...

Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
