    It's totally bizarre that she is interviewing daycares and supposedly isn't sure about your daycare but then brings her son to you for an hour. I have never heard of that before.

    I have had people come without their child but never drop him off solo at a later as a meet and greet.

    Strange. Definitely don't worry about losing this one.

    Yup, you've dodged a bullet there. But it is frustrating when people waste your time like that!!

    I've never heard of that before either. I have the parents come with child but never dropped off. Sounds like she needed a sitter or something. Unless this is something you normally do.

    I've also had a mom that just can't make up her mind and always asking me to send her updates since I only have one spot left. After a bunch of updates, she tells me she's not sure about going back to work after all and is looking into extending her leave. I finally told her to just contact me when she's ready and if I have a spot I have a spot ! If I don’t I don't! It can be so frustrating.
