I suggest seeing what the situation is like when you decide to reopen. Will you be able to fill the slots with new clients, or not? And these new clients... what happened to their previous care situation? There isn't going to be a long line of parents who paid 50%+ throughout the pandemic that are in need of care.

I'd also take into consideration the situation of the few families who did lose income. If their income is stable again, it might be worth working with them if you had no previous problems.

With that information, do what is best for your business. If you have enough potential clients, you are in a strong position to not hold spots for those who didn't work with you during closure.
