Wow, that kind of sucks for the parent.
I think it is nice that you are trying to help her but at the same time she knows you made arrangements to accept her children into care in March and even though she needs immediate care, if it isn't something you can accomodate, you mught just have to tell her that you can't switch things up for her.
Even if that means risking losing her as a client.
I am sorry there isn't an easy answer. I would opt for complete honesty with her and simply tell her your situation and why you aren't able to help her out and see if she is willing to find temporary care until you can take her kids.
If she really wants to be a part of your program, she might just do whateer she can to make due until you are available.
