Closing Daycare

[bright sparks]

Sorry to hear that things haven't worked out as originally planned, but kudos to you for recognizing early on and making some no doubt difficult choices to change your circumstances which will make for some positive results.

Unfortunately you can't know for sure how people will respond, but you may very well be suprised. You have to do what's best for you, and if it's making you very anxious to see how they respond, I'd do it sooner rather than later to get it over and done with. Maybe there will be some initial raw emotions, but I'm sure once notice is given, a huge weight will be lifted from your shoulders and moving forward you will feel better.

If the one family give you any grief over the short period of time in which you have been providing care, just reaffirm to them that it was never your intention for this to be a short term arrangement, and such is life that unforeseen circumstances have arisen resulting in a change of plans.

Best of luck and let us know how you get on!
