[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The short notice is a problem, she should have given you several weeks, but it sounds like she has been in a situation where she's starting work 90 minutes early every day to accommodate you, while you're paying part time rates.  If you leave, then she can put a full time kid in that slot, and have more money and 7.5 hours of her life back.  Ask yourself honestly, if someone came to you and offered you a new job with 7.5 less hours and more money, and it came with a positive change for your own child, how many weeks notice would you have felt obligated to give her?  I think she had the same obligation to you.[/quote]

NP- More than a week. She could have offered solutions. Daycare provider knows OP relies on her posted schedule to be able to work. OP can't work and watch child, so there is an inherit responsibility with the job to be reliable. My suspicion is she found a FT replacement or two and wanted to secure them since she knows OP leaves in August. OP your mistake was giving too much notice, but you were trying to be kind. [/quote]
