And I am having a bunch of mixed emotions about it.
First off - it's the family in this thread I recently started: https://www.daycare.com/forum/showthread.php?t=69786
I've had them since I opened (a little over a year ago) and got a text from DCM today that said, "Hi, Taylor. We have decided that with DCD needing to replace his vehicle and the behavior issues with A, we need to pull the kids from daycare. There last day will be April 11th. We will be in touch over the Summer to discuss a deposit sufficient to hold FT places starting again with the new school year if you're willing. Thank you so much for all you do! See you Monday."
Obviously I'm sad. I've had the DCB (4) and DCG (9 months) for over a year and I really love this family. I've has the baby since she was 6 weeks old and finally have her on a good schedule and everything has been great. I'm not worried about anything on the income end.
But I still cannot help but feel like maybe the recent issues with their son becoming violent (he had an issue with hitting a 2 yo DCB on Friday, after the incident where he hit me, so it's continuing) and how I dealt with it with them has put them off and that's why they've decided to pull their children. Or they feel that I am not providing properly for their children thus the behavior issues.
Or, should I feel relieved that they are being proactive and attempting to correct the behavior that they see is progressively getting worse? (DCM admitted on Friday that the same violent behavior has been occurring for months now at home but is just now starting to leak over into daycare life).
Or maybe I'm just being overly sensitive about this because it's my first family who has pulled from my care.
