Our governor ordered closures for all daycares. I could choose to care for essential employees kids', but I personally didn't feel it was worth it to stay open for 1, maybe 2 kids.
I'm not charging for when I'm closed. It originally was a 2 week closure, now it has been extended to 4 weeks.
I was really hoping that parents would see how much of a loss I'm taking from something that is out of my control and pay me more than what I billed for, but silly me for thinking that would ever happen! All of them are still working and I feel like I do so much for them and their children. Even paying for an extra couple days would have been amazing. *sigh* Oh, well. At least
most of them paid me right away instead of waiting until last minute. I know I shouldn't expect families to think about the position I'm in, but it sure makes me feel unappreciated. I did get one thank you from a parent for staying open as long as I did, so that was nice
