    A nice surprise-advanced payment

    Yesterday, one of my dck didn't show up. He does this occasionally without calling because he doesn't really NEED care (He comes for the preschool and socialization). I called to ask about payment, because it was pay day. No answer.

    Last night I emailed and explained that today, I'd need the 160 regular weekly fee, plus a 10 dollar late fee. He doesn't have to come, but I need my payment::

    Dad comes into today and says "I understand I owe you a late fee because we didn't come yesterday." I said yes, 10 dollars. He handed me a check for 650.00<~~ My face probably looked like that. Apparently, it's for the rest of the month. He doesn't want late fees because he doesnt show up on Mondays. . Works for me!

    One of my parents pays one or two months in advance. Once they paid like 3 or 4 months in advance. That was nice!!

        I have a rule that after paying late 3 times, it's one month in advance payment... If you can't afford it, you can't afford me....

        Only had to do this once.

        That is a nice surprise.... enjoy!!

          Yep, if we could do that, most of us wouldn't be doing daycare for the low pay we get now!::

              Great surprise! I had one that did that. It was nice to have that extra for supplies for the whole month instead of having to spread it out weekly.
