I posted another thread- 'Accused of restraining child' and now this is what is happening.
I have made the decision to term this family they are scaring the heck out of me. I was sent a text message demanding a meeting and that they would not be sending their child to my home until we meet and discuss all of their concerns. I didn't know there was a list of concerns!
I have decided I am not comfortable having the child and the parents in my home. I don't think I can meet their unrealistic needs.
The problem is my contract requires a two week notice by either party. However, I do have a clause in my contract that states 'As your provider, I am not required to give advance notice of termination under the following circumstances: non-payment of fees, non-compliance with policies, failure to meet immunization requirements and unsafe behavior by your child that is physically unsafe for other children in my care, myself or my home environment.'
The situation with them would be 'non-compliance with policies'. They are disputing whether I can temporarily put a child in a high chair or pack n play if the child is ill and waiting to be picked up. I am backed up my our state 'rules' governing daycare on this issue. They also did not pay me on time last week, which would be a non-compliance with policy issue. They are also putting the other child at risk by not complying with my illness policies in the contact we all signed.
Does this seem right to you? Like I said before I did talk with my Licensor and she actually suggested I term the family. Do you think this is grounds for immediate termination. I am actually afraid they are going to try to sue me or something (slipping on the ice etc.). They are really scaring me....
They are paid through this Friday, by the way.
This whole thing is making me sick to my stomach!
