I run a licensed home daycare and just found out we are expecting our second child happyface. I am wondering how long I should wait until telling my daycare parents?
Luckily 2 of the children I watch are off to kindergarten just before we are due (Planned it that way ) but I have 2 more children who will have to find alternate care. What I am worried about is loosing anyone before my maternity Leave. I am from canada and pay into EI so I will be taking the year off so they will need to find new care.
What do you think is a fare amount of time for them to find new care? I was thinking of telling them at 4 months if I can hide the belly that long
If i tell them at 4 months, then they have to give me 1 months notice before leaving care so that gets me to at least 5 months before possibly loosing anyone. hopefully longer.
I want to be fare to them in giving them time to find new care but I really can't afford to loose anyone early before my due date. What do you think or what are your experiences? Anyone loose clients early or did they stay until your due date?
