Terming One For Another

See, that's one of the things I'm worried about, I KNOW they'll ask why. And do I tell them there's someone who wants all 5 days and willing to pay more? I know I shouldn't feel guilty but I do... LOL Just a tiny bit though!

Yes. That's what you do. I always tell every interview that I am conducting more interviews and that I will call with my decision. I also explain that it is my priority to fill my openings with clients needing the most hours first. Full time takes priority over part time and part time clients take priority over clients needing less part time hours.

Thank you! I was practically empty last Feb when they started and only had my DS and one other DCB FT, and one after school when she was already gone. It seemed like a good schedule and worked with the "issues" because I needed to fill the spot badly. But now I've since filled 2 FT and 1 PT spot and now I'm getting calls and emails daily! I just got a text from another mom who interviewed a couple weeks back for a 1 day only thing which I wasn't opposed to at first since it was a day I'm low on kids anyway and could do 3 infants and 3 non-infants but now she's changed days and I've filled up more than 3 non-infant spots that day so I can't accommodate her. Definitely not sad about that because she was problematic just from the interview, I did not want to work with her! LOL I have another interview next week for a PT infant in August. We'll see how that goes. I don't currently have room but we'll give it a whirl because who knows what could happen between now and August!!
