[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Eh, maybe she wanted another kid for her kid to play with.  I would rather have 2 kids than one.  If they are similar ages they can play together.  She tried it and didn't like it.  She should have spoken up immediately.  I still don't get what made you keep.checking in with her.  I would have just said see you on Friday at pick up earlier in the week and left it at that.  The additional outreach isn't normal a d shows you knew something was wrong.  Is your child misbehave? I would likely cut back the friendship and now you know better for later.  I had a friend who stayed home and i seriously debated letting her keep my kids to earn money.  After tho king a out it I determined she just wouldn't be reliable enough.  [/quote]

Op. I guess I was worried about her flaking on me and I felt guilty about not paying her. I really wanted to pay her but I didn't know where to start.  I thought about paying her a nanny rate but it would have been really expensive. My son would have been watching lots of TV I suspect and they do not have a playground in her community. She does freak out prematurely about her daughter getting sick. I should have seen this coming. She has also been trying to start an in home daycare but can't find clients. She told me that she meets families but they don't call her back. This has been a good learning experience for me. I am not comfortable with home daycare anymore. I think in my area in home daycares are not professional. I have met a lot of moms who are not shy about leaving the TV on all day and they want to bring my child on errands. Maybe it's a regional thing. I live in the south.
