[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Were you paying her?[/quote]
[b]
Op. No she didn't want me to pay her! My son was only with her for 4 hour's yesterday. [/b]I texted her in the evening to confirm things were ok and she did not respond. I also sent her a Facebook message this morning. She is active on Facebook. I told her I would really like to pay an in home daycare rate but she said no. I thought I would buy her gift cards and things like that to show my appreciation. I am trying not to freak out but I have work on Friday. I need reliable childcare. My friend was so excited to do this. [/quote]

LMAO

You weren't paying the woman and you said she was excited to start an at-home daycare. Meaning a business.

She was waiting for you to bring up the financial remuneration, when you didn't she cut her losses. If I were you I'd apologize and thank her for taking care of your child for free for a day and move on. [/quote]

I think you're being harsh. I asked her many times if she wanted to be paid and she said NO. It was supposed to be a temporary thing for 1 month. I also brought her lunch and a $5 coffee the day she took care of my son. I  have given her a ride to doctor appointments, story time and the grocery store many times. She said she wanted to  help me out as a friend because I help her out too. She's a flakey person. If she wanted to be paid then she shouldn't have rejected everytime I brought it up. Anyway I am really happy with the school I toured today. I need professional childcare. My friend really screwed me over and she lied to me. [/quote]
