I wish I could have this type of mutual relationship between my little DCG’s parents & myself. I have 4 children during the day & she’s the one of all that needs it the most. I have a set of twins & their parents fully entrust me with caring for their children & never ask any special requests of me, as they know I know what I’m doing & don’t have a problem with the way I run my HDC. The DCG’s parents on the other hand want me to keep doing the same things that they do at home. For example, when she first started mom wanted me to rock her to sleep & hold her for a few minutes before putting her down. I have made some slight improvements with this family, but this one request just had me feeling like we’re back at square one. When mom picked her up the other day, I could tell that she was really PO’d with me as she barely looked at me or spoke to me. I told my husband yesterday over dinner that I have a feeling this is going to be an issue for her mom, & I have a feeling her notice is coming since grandma is fully willing & ready to take DCG whenever mom needs.
