I make 12 deposits per week and I missed putting one in. It was in JUNE and I just caught it (putting quarterly tax stuff together).
No small amount, 350. Obviously parents are aware, as they had to add it back to their check book.
SO MAD at them right now. I would have asked my provider. They just let it go.
Why are you SO MAD at them? It isn't the responsibility of them, your customer, to chase you around and make sure you are on top of YOUR finances and bookkeeping. You also do not know that they "added it back to their check book". Do you normally assume that your daycare families are thieves?
When I write a check I deduct the amount from my available funds and move on. Not my concern to follow up on the check. The money is there, whenever the check is cashed.
