Is This Normal For A Parent To Ask?

[AnythingsPossible]

No charge for maternity leave, I also don't charge to hold spots for teachers kids. Just never have felt comfortable asking parents to pay for extended time they won't be using when I know it's coming. But that's just me.

Same for me. The section in the contract addresses it as extended leave. It covers maternity leave, extended illness (parent or child), out of state custody (2 of my dck's are gone right now b/c of this), teachers off for the summer; basically any extended leave up to 12 weeks to hold their spot. It's only for full time dck's, they pay half price and can bring the child up to 2 days a week at this rate.

Do you have anything written to get approved as an extended leave prior to the time? When you only allow two days a week, must they be scheduled so you can fill the other days?

I have 3 preg mommas right now,... well 2, one was born 4 weeks ago. Mom is at home on mat leave, I still get boy every day, not as long of hours as normal, but I still get him. I will get new baby as well. Hopefully she will be as easy as he was.

Will you have room for all the new babies? What happens if you don't? That is a lot of little one's to accommodate at once! wow. I love babies, but three is the limit for me.
