Can't Be Around The Kids.....

[daycare]

Personally I agree that you should close. If you were in a car accident and were hospitalized for a week you wouldn't be able to give them 30 days notice - this isn't much different.

But if you definitely can't close, what about offering the parents credit toward the following week's fees if they shorten their hours or keep their children home? Then have your employees care for the children while you camp out upstairs in case of emergency. IF you have to come downstairs do the mask, gloves, change clothes thing.

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure...

Thank you all for your feedback and insight. All of this came with good planning on my part for an unexpected surgery and I did not see this coming at all. I am going to do my best to close and see what comes of it.

Happy Friday Everyone!

I would also wash everyone's hands immediately at arrival. And do more hands off activities. Stay up and away as much as possible. Do loads of relaxed play. And clean like a mad person. Lol.
Seriously though, I can't wait to read that you are recovering nicely and bouncing back to normal.

Cannot add any more suggestions that haven't already been offered up but want to wish you the VERY BEST in recovery and healing thoughts!!
Take care of you first. And lean on others when you need to. I know providers are a nurturing breed but sometimes you have to let the tables turn and be taken care of yourself.
Please keep us posted. :hug:
