So Nervous To Tell Parents...

[JoseyJo]

I told our parents last tuesday (3 weeks notice). One family said nothing and didn't return this week (no hard feelings there- just happy to be rid of them!) The rest have been sad but understanding.

I've been working hard, but found care for 2 of my kids at the same daycare. The mom of a friend of mine just opened her daycare in October and has positions available. So now its just one of my little guys who is old enough to start in a center. The woman who is taking 2 of my kids is also going to be buying most of my daycare stuff .

I do think I decided to wait until we come back from break before telling everyone. That still gives them 1 month to get things in order and I don't want them stressing over the holidays.

I think it's a good idea to wait til after the holiday. No need for added stress - especially since you already found them alternate care. I think that they should be so appreciative of that! I don't know any provider who finds care for their families before giving notice. You are awesome!

Congrats on the new home and hopefully happier baby girl! Good Luck! happyface

It sounds like you have plenty of time to tell them, I would NOT tell them until after the holidays.

Same here!
