    Mattsmom how long did you keep the one little one before you let her go. This little one slept for 40 min. and started crying again and to boot he has a fever of 102.5 from having his needles yesterday and mom or dad is not coming until close to 5 pm. Even though I called about the fever. Six days of this and I am exhausted, in 28 years of doing daycare, I have never had a child like this

    Oh, see the fever is another thing. If they have a fever that high, parents get a call to pick up right away.
    As for how long I kept the little girl for, I think ended up being a month and a half before I finally told the mom that I couldn't do it anymore. But as I said, every situation is different. If you feel you can't handle it anymore and the parents aren't cooperating at all to make the transition easier, then do what you feel you have to in order to keep your sanity.
