I lived and learned the hard way on this case. I held a spot for someone for 10 months!! I onlly charged at that time a 2 week deposit. What a HUGE mistake!! One week before she was going to start, she calls and tells me, she found someone who was open 6-6 and she was going to start going there, instead of here!! I couldn't believe it!! Then she had the nerve to ask, do we receive our deposit back. I was so mad!! I told her NO, do you realize I must have turned away 30 babies, and lost over $5,000.00, because of you wanting that spot!! NEVER AGAIN!!!!!! Til it actually happens to you, you have no idea, of what this means!! I changed my contract instantly to say, if you are wanting me to hold a spot for you, I will be willing to hold it for one week per month payment. I just had a family give me 5 weeks worth, to hold it for 5 months for them!! I really don't know if one week per month, is even sufficient for that long!
