I switched from M-F to M-Th two years ago. I announced in January that I'd be making the switch in September, so gave them plenty of notice. I had one child leaving for kindergarten at that point, and everyone else was part time, so I was able to re-arrange everyone's schedules so they'd have the same number of days/week, though some had to switch days. I charge by the day, not the week, so I made no adjustments to my rate. I didn't lose any families, though I have had to turn away a few prospective families since then who needed full time. Well worth it for my sanity and my family life and my daughter's homeschooling!
