Found out one of my families is going to leave me as soon as they find alternative care but how I found out isn't something I can tell her because I don't want my source to get into trouble.
So I have a family wanting to fill this position with the same schedule and will be the same money but heres the kicker grandma who was watching the child is leaving a week from this coming monday so mom was asking if I had the spot or not. Do I have it for sure no, until other mom tells me I won't count my chickens.
I did however txt mom and tell her the last few times we talked I got the definate feeling that she was going to decide to leave and that I know I had told her I would give her until december 1st but I currently have another family interested and I don't want to lose out if shes just gonna leave. I told her I want to watch her son if she wants me to but I also need to keep my spots filled since I am barely making it as it is in this business. I also told her I hope this txt doesn't upset her and that i hope she understands why I had to send it. I also told her to disregard it if my feeling was wrong.
Was I wrong in sending this txt, should I have just pasted on this other family and let things happen the way they should and have two slots unfilled? I have been holding this position for the baby for over 6 months and now for her to just use me for a few weeks while she looks for someone else just kinda bothers me and makes me feel if she can look out for herself then I should be able to look out for me.
Still waiting on answer from mom, my heart is beating so hard and I think my blood pressure is rising I don't like to have people mad at me but it seems to be my newest hobby.
