I don't want to open earlier but I also don't want to lose this family as I only have 2 families (1 kid each), so I can't afford to lose them. My husband is going to tell me to do whatever to accommodate them, but my other family is here from 8:00-5:30. I don't know what to do. I will not open any earlier than 7 and will not open before 7:30 during the school year because my DD gets on the bus at 7:10 and our mornings are hectic enough that I don't need DCK here while I'm trying to get her off to school.

WWYD?
That's your call. YOU need to do what works best for your family. If you make any special accommodations, I would put it in writing and have what the accommodations are and how long they will last. Find out if it's temporary or something that will last long term and go from there.

If it meant me getting off any earlier, I'd jump on it. If there are other kids still there, it would depend on HOW much earlier are we talking?!
