    Went with my gut feeling on this one and passed.

    I refuse to ignore this inner voice anymore as I have ignored it in the past only to get bitten in the A-double-assets!

    I agree ... we did not get to 'hear' the conversation but the tone / words you relayed in your post made it not about the 'urgency' being a red flag for me ... cause I have interviewed people who needed care to start on a Monday due to emergency pulling of a child from a program that was not working for them .... for me the 'assumption' that you would hold the spot for some person you have never met and the presumptions that your spot would definitely go to him like you had no 'say' in the matter - that would be a NO GO for me over here!
    Children construct their own intelligence. The adult must provide activities and context, but most of all must be able to listen. Children need proof that adults believe in them. Their three great desires are to be listened to, to understand, and to demonstrate that they are exactly what we expect."

A few tips...

If you visited or if you're using a childcare provider found on DaycareBear, do not hesitate to leave a review. This will most certainly help other parents!

We expect providers to keep their listing and available openings up-to-date. However, to prevent oversights, openings expire after 45 days.
