The day a parent tells me what I can and can't do during naptime is the day they will find the door slammed in their face (or in your case, foot)!

Sorry but you had it coming to you!

I do my hair, put on make-up, mop the floors, catch me some Maury Show, or whatever comes to mind during naptime and I'm going to continue doing it day after day!

All the kids are under video & audio surveillance during naptime. If one of the littles wakes up, moves, shuffles, etc, I see and hear all. I have a 7 inch monitor I take into the bathroom while I'm straightening my hair!

Do you breathe over your child while he's napping, I think not! And if you are requiring that type of care, you need to see a nanny, not a group setting!

As for the money...the way I see it is this: You would have to provide a 2 week notice to terminate anyway. Whether you gave notice or she did, you're still responsible for it. I specifically tell parents that if they can't give me the 4 weeks notice I require, I will accept wages in lieu of time. She did the same thing.

It is what it is!

I work 11 hours a day and I have a 9.5 hour day max. The people that pick up at or before 430pm get a cheaper rate. Those that require me to work right down to the second of 530pm pay a much higher rate.

Your hard earned money goes into your child receiving care. What your provider does with HER hard earned money...who cares! She could be spending it each weekend at the bar or casino and there isn't a damn thing you can do about it!

You really need to get over yourself!
