You thought she threw a fit before. Wait until she realizes you're not backing down! Picture a three year old temper tantrum cause you're about to have one.LOL

Just be pleasant(kill her with kindness) and tell him goodbye.

holy moly!!! I cant believe all the crazies you attract daycare. The nerve of that mom, my word, I don't even know where to start. And to come in with a written note and not have the guts to apologize to your face? how rude is that. I agree with everything you said and the way you handled it. She needs a big fat reality check because there are a huge number of schools and daycares that wouldnt even take an un-potty trained 4 year old. You have reached out to assist her with this in a way that many providers would not but she will have to learn that the hard way.

Update?

[cheerfuldom]

I have been checking back for updates too!

[daycare]

Sorry for the late update, I had to go have some of my stitches replaced from the other days event.

So DCM sent the Nanny to pick up. UGH! I guess she thinks that she is avoiding the whole situation by doing this.

I gave the Nanny, who I was told was no longer there with them the envelop and just said my normal stuff. He had a good day, napped well, ate ok, etc etc.

When I handed her the envelop, I said can you please give this to DCM, it's regarding XXXX care, so it's important.

Ready for this...................The Nanny says, oh no, you aren't kicking them out too are you???

I looked at her with a face like I saw a ghost. I didn't know what to say at all. She didn't really spell it out for me, but she said, "maybe this time mom will finally get it."

That was it. I didn't respond to anything, I did not feel that it would be professional to discuss DC matters with the Nanny.

All I can think of is HOLY COW. I just dodged a HUGE Bullet. I guess dck has been termed from DCs before and I am wondering now if really it's ALL mom and not the Nanny at all like the DCM had said it was during the initial interview.

I feel for this little boy. His parents are both very successful driven career individuals, but this child is not getting what he needs, no direction. From what I understand, the dad works in international sales and is NEVER home. Mom works a lot too and does not get to spend a lot of time with DCK. I was hoping that we could work out for him and give him a family environment that all kids crave.... oh well, we can't save them all

On a side note, to answer one of the above posts, I talked to one of my good friends who works with social services and said what do you think about this situation. She said it's really sad and unfortunate, but there is no law on what the parents are or are not doing for that matter. She said if you feel you need to call it in, please do, but don't be upset if it only goes as far as a one time visit.

UGH....another one bites the DUST...

Back to the drawing board

I still can't believe she said "I employ you"

[MotherNature]

wow. Good for you, using your backbone. The ignorance of mom....insisting SHE employed YOU and therefore you had no choice in the matter to watch her kid or not. wow. I'd be fuming. And then to passive aggressively give you a card? Again, good job standing up to the bully. happyface

Why is DCK coming to you if she has a nanny? What did DCM tell you about this nanny in the interview?

[daycare]

My husband said to me last night. This has to be a joke. Someone is playing a joke on you. There is no way someone could be like this....

DCM told me in the interview that The Nanny was not doing anything with the kid and that they realized that the Nanny was holding him back. They said the Nanny was overwhelming. Now I see why the mom thought that, because it was the mom not the Nanny.

I was told that they Nanny was going to be gone once the child started here, but then I do recall now that the mom did say that the Nanny would be picking up their older child from school and staying with them. I am assuming since the dad works a lot overseas and the DCM works a lot of long hours, that they would be keeping her own to pick up the time that the school and I are not open to offer care.

I really don't know all the details. I was expecting a phone call or email yesterday, but I didn't and so far nothing today either.

sad thing is in a year when the child goes to school it will be a reportable thing if they do not fix it.

so true..... Gosh the things that go on these days are just nuts. Right now I have a gma that is in town and is going to stay for a few weeks. She has been doing drop off and I have seen a whole different side of her grand kids because granny don't play that. I complimented her on it and she said I don't know where I went wrong with my own daughter, she has the worst parenting I have ever seen......

While I must say I do agree, I just could not believe that the grandma said that to me.

I am finding it more common for a lot of parents to NOT parent their children, not follow through on their threats and just let things go because they are too tired to deal with it.
