    Dear Parents,

    Effective May 11, 2011, I will be changing my open time to 7:00 am and my closing time to 4:30 pm. I realize that this change will effective some of you and I am truly sorry for the inconvience. This was not an easy decision for me, as I know some of your children may have to leave my care and I truly love and enjoy each of them. I have enclosed a list of daycare providers that I trust and also the number to the local agency which will provide you with a full list of providers that will meet your needs.

    If the new hours do not work for you two weeks notice is still required per our contract.

    Thank you and please let me know if I can help you in any other way if you require to find a new daycare.

    Signed ME


    Should I add why? I was planning on telling them the reason verbally, but didnt know if I should have it in writing too. This only effects two families.
    I think that your letter sounds pretty good, but I would make a couple changes to it. I would leave out the list of information for other providers and the agency's info as well. I think that since you are giving the families plenty of notice, then they should have no problem finding another provider. I wouldn't put any reason in the letter, because in the end, the reason doesn't matter. You are making changes in your schedule, and that's all that they need to know. As far as the other family goes, if they can adjust their schedules to accommodate your new hours, then that's something that you can work out with them verbally I would think. I would have the families who are staying sign an updated contract with the new hours in it as well. Good luck!
