If you are entitled to those 4 days then quote the notice period written on contracts - I would put it all in a separate letter rather than just hand her bill and try to explain verbally while trying to concentrate on mindees tea. Even better to avoid a battle - I would hand deliver the letter and bill on Tuesday - just post it through without knocking, so she still has to come Tuesday to collect "stuff". What "stuff" is she collecting?

Well im a bit confused on notice period so ive just put what she owes me for july im happy with that as its her that doesnt want to bring him to me anymore what should I put in the letter? And should I get hef to write a letter aswell this is only my second child to leave so still new at this .
Theys a pushchair and a bag full of nappys wipes etc.

A notice period works both ways so either party should announce their decision to end the contract and then it will end after a period of time that you have stated in contract and they have signed. It's very good of you to accept less than this (I think that's what you're saying) but I would definitely put it all in writing- if you haven't already? A letter that states that you have accepted their request to end the contract, as it states in our contract there is a 4 week (for example) notice period for this. I am willing on this occasion to accept only what would be owing for July and so therefore the final day for xxx to be in my care will be xxxx and the balance to pay will be xxx. I have enclosed the final invoice...

I would hold the personal belongs hostage until she pays what you owe - but better to let her know in advance what you think she owes rather than have an arguement in front on mindees tomorrow.

So ive just told text the mum how much it is and shes really kicked off and says shes not paying I just want it to be over and done with shes saying shes not happy that I took him to doctors with my son and that my son had tonsillits when he was here I did appologies but wasnt goid enough as I didnt say sorry in person only thro text ive just text to say i will redo bill as to what I have worked and leave it at that she nows put him into nursery which he went to anyway on a tue im beginging to think that she was waiting to put him in nursery the whole time but lesson learnt don't open my mouth and be so truthfull and make sure contract is filled out and the parents know and sign to terms and con feel annoyed that she didnt just speak to me am I being unreasonable over one mistake? When he clearly liked coming here
