I think I am Finally Getting This

Dont take this wrong, I dont quite understand because I dont do drop in care or school agers.
I guess I dont see why you need the letter. If it were me I would just give them the schedule and tell them to pick their days. And then give them a new contrat and policies to sign. Even though you may be still learning you dont have to be so vulnerable to the dcp.

I completely understand where you are coming from but I have a few parents who are with contracts like kids are with homework, they don't read. So I figure if I bombard them with it enough one of the papers will get through to them whether it be the letter or contract. I don't understand how they just sign something and not read it, and I know they haven't read it because I have to point out this policy or that. I guess I could have just handed them a new contract and schedule sheet but I figured keeping lines of communication open is a keep part of good daycare. Just like I want them to tell me if they are gonna be late, or not come one day, they want to know what I am doing.
