I do this, if they hesistate then I know they are not going to be a good fit. I can see that they would be the parents that would lying about if they are at work. I had a family who I would see drive by my house every day, but the child was here for 10 or 11 hours a day (he left in july because they wanted to save 20 dollars a week) to me that was so ridiculous. I remember how many times he would be so sad (he was 3 at the time) because everyone went home and he was still here and the parents where home, playing on the computer or making dinner, and the thing was, he was such a good kid, they even said he was a good kid, they just didn't want to spend time with him.I dont really announce what my hours of operation are. When someone will ask me, I will say it will depend on when you need daycare. What time will you need child care? I let them answer and if they say I work from 8-5, then I will immediately reply with ok great so a 7:30-5:30 schedule would work great for you then? I then explain that I only work the hours that I am need for parents to go to work or school.
If they say no, then I will ask where do you work? If it more than 50 min away, I usually don't take those people. Why? because then if their kid gets sick or something to that degree, it will take the hours and hours to come get their child.
can you tell I have BTDT??Comment
