Please help.....give me your toughts, Criticism, or input....
thanks ladies and TGIF!!!
Prior to your child’s admission to our day care, we entered into an agreement that you and your family would abide by all the policies and rules in the Parent Handbook.
Over the course of the past several months, I have been very lenient with the rules with you. I have had to spend countless non-paid hours trying to help you get all of your records up to date, filing and emailing forms with the county heath office, along with many other things. This is much more than I have done for any other family here.
I hope you understand that I always try my best to be understanding, flexible and compassionate to those that are in my care. However, I will no longer be able to offer this flexibility that I have offered in the past.
Starting February 1, 2011, I will be placing you on a 14 day probationary period. I expect during this time for you to follow through with all of the Parent Handbook rules and policies. If for any reason during the 14 day period, you breach the contract or rules, I will be terminating your contract immediately without refund.
I hope that we can see to work things out and that your children can continue their stay here. If you have any further questions, Please feel free to contact me.

OMG too much to mention.....
showing up on days when not contracted, showing up super early. Never paying on time. Not updating records, the list goes on..
I just felt that it was best not to point out all of the rules broken?? I was told not to give a reason when terming??
One of the things that sent me over edge was that their lil guy was very very ill, they brought him to care and did not tell me. He had a seziure while here in my care and when the grandma came to pick him up she was soooo pissed off. She told me the baby just got out of the hospital two days prior..............ugh

First off I can not believe they did that to you ad their child me personally I would of termed right then and there. I like your letter its forward and straight to the point. Good luck.

trust me if I werent such a softy I would have term a long time ago. Im a huge sucker for the kids and I love them, so I don't want them to miss out cuz they have silly parents....
so you would not change anything?

I think the letter is great, I would maybe add just in conversation that you are tying to keep things business oriented and not too personal. Hard to do when we develop a personal relationship with the kids but necessary with the parents. That will hopefully help them understand your pov better.
