[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She needs a backup person, she can’t just leave in the middle of a session you paid for (unless she’s refunding you?). This doesn’t sound like a very professional operation, which is fine if she’s new, but I would look at the contract and see what her backup provision is, and if one doesn’t exist discuss the pro-rated fees you will pay if she leaves.

I think she started offering the service before she had a good sense for what it entailed. [/quote]

op here. she didn't mention refunding. She is also going on vacation soon. I told her we could do it after her vacation if that's easier so it doesn't conflict with the jan birth she still has. [/quote]

No, that's just too fishy. You need to find someone else, OP. This is not a responsible professional. I know you hate giving her what she wants, but this is your child. Don't trust someone like that with your newborn.[/quote]

This. OP, your newborn baby is absolutely not the time to be thrifty. Tell her yes you want to cancel and you want a refund for those nights. If she won’t refund, still don’t let her watch your baby at night and just get back at her by refusing to provide a reference or review. Don’t mess around with your kids for any cost.[/quote]
