    I'm still so upset...Lesson ...longgg sorry

    I post few days ago about how I was felling guilty because I can't handle 4 month old anymore,I love the parents they so nice...etc.
    Here what happen they always did however they wanted with me,I always saying yes,I wanted to help you...They drop off 1 2 hours late,I don't they drop off late but always drop off when my baby and other kids is napping and she's was waking everyone,I basically didn't have brake we she's here,but I loved her and her smile. always pick up late and no paying on fridays anymore.
    Ok I told then I couldn't watch her anymore,I give notice on Wednesday,on Saturday dad text me asking if I can watch one more week.I said Of course,by the end of the week,Monday morning I texted,did you find any daycare?
    OMGGGGG She's said yes I found and I told you,just in june.What you just told me and you didn't even asked if I can watch her 1 month...
    I said NO I can't I already watch her more than I can.She said ok,drop off the baby that day didn't even looked my face.
    I was waiting for her to pay,wait till Friday,and text her are you going to pay me,she's said Yes...
    She's drop off the money in my mat and text me....
    I'm not to pay you for late fee because dcd didn't pick her late any day and I paid you extra money before:hug:You lived me on bad situation.



    I answered,look here is the text message with picture,hour and date and he's number he did pick up her late.I never lied to you.
    Look I never asked for more money,I was thinking you appreciate when I was taking care of you daughter,I hope you find someone who did what I did for her...


    I going to stop be so nice with those dcp........

    We all make mistakes. Take it as a lesson learned. I learned the hard way as well. Best of luck to you!

      yeah you did learn a hard lesson. Arrange your daycare schedule so parents always pay in advance. Require that late fees be paid before the next drop off at daycare. Either way, "no pay, no stay". you did the right thing in not keeping this child and at this point, if they have paid their weekly fee, I would let the late fee go. They are gone for good and that is the important thing.

        Absolutely. I no longer take anyone's word for it. They need to pay their accounts in full prior to me watching their child.

        I have had to let late fees go before when a client left on bad terms. It ended up being worth it for my own sanity.
