[quote=Anonymous]I was hired for a share that was to start in the fall. I was going to be caring for two babies who haven’t been born yet. I woke up this morning to an email from one of the families saying the other family went for their 38 wk appointment and learned their baby had died. I can’t begin to fathom how devastating that must be for them. I did a phone interview with that mom and then met all the parents together for the in person interview and then the other mom for finalizing details when they offered me the job. The email asked not to send any texts but email is ok. I’ve never been in a situation like this before and wondered if any moms can give me a couple pointers on what to say (or not to say) in an email to them. I need to acknowledge this and say something. The other family is still interested in working with me but they simply don’t know what their needs will be now that the share is off the table, so i need to acknowledge that as well. Both families have an older child that i haven’t met and wasn’t going to be caring for. [/quote]
