Here's the scenario. I have one little boy who is going to be 6 in March his brother is one. I was told by Mom that after this Summer he wouldn't be here. Dad was not on board, and furious that Mom and I arranged this. Dad works until 1:30 and doesn't pick up boys until 4:45-5. Which is the latest he possibly can, because I close. (Same Dad told me if I had daycare on weekends they would bring them)
So little boy will continue to come here after school with another daycare girl. I told parents I would take him after school if they couldn't find an alternative since there was an error in communication. I've had this family for 4 1/2 years. They acted like I was booting their kid. Even Mom who had spoken with me about it.
Anyhow....I need to figure out when and how to communicate that they need to find different care for older boy by next Summer, but the one year old can stay here.
I have a new baby being born with one of my families in January.
I can't say that I don't take school agers anymore, because I made an arrangement with one of my families that have a daughter with social issues. She'll probably be coming here for a few more years. She's not old enough to stay home yet, and doesn't have the ability to stay home even if she was.
This little boy that I'm trying to send somewhere else is kind of my problem child. He picks at the other kids and on days that he's not here everyone plays wonderful. Then he shows up and makes them crazy. Dad can absolutely take him after school...he just doesn't want to. They also wouldn't have care for him in the Summer.
Any suggestions on communication?
