I read on here on time. If the child repeatedly acts up at pick up, talk to the parent & child and tell them the very next time and every time there after, they have to wait outside, you the provider will put on the child's jacket etc, the provider walks child to the door opens it and parent takes child to their car. If you have an assistant, parent texts/calls when they pull up and the assistant can get child ready and walk them to the car. Do this a few days and see how child acts the next time you allow the parent inside at pick up. ***Parent and provider must work together on this. I did it with one of my parents, but she kept making it a threat to her child but would not step outside and close the door. Not until she actually acted on it and went out the door and I closed it did it become effective.
