I give every family the first two weeks to see if the child will fit into our setting. I've never had one that didn't make it through the first two weeks, although looking back there were a few trouble families that I should have terminated during the trial period. Anyways, new 13 month old started Monday. Today was his last day. I used the trial period to end care and was so grateful when grandma carried him out today! Nobody should have to listen to a child scream non-stop from drop off to pick up all week!
