I'm confused how do you know that the provider is being a horrible person, as far as we know the only thing they have done is have what most of us consider a long notice period that was played out in her contract that the parent signed. I dont know what she did to make you think she was horrible. The op may not want to recomend the provider to friends because they dont like the notice period. But to suggest that they threaten with a bad review is going over board in my mind. Read what you sign.
