I am really struggling with this and really need your advice.
I took on a new mindee about 5 weeks ago, i didnt take a retainer as they were starting so soon and i really trusted the parents but let me a cheque to be paid in on the 30th for octobers care (i paid this in on Wednesday)
They went on holiday last sunday for the week and not back until sunday / monday and the child starts on Tuesday
Well on Thursday just gone i was offered a job working in a local infant school which is an amazing opportunity for me and my career in getting my QTS.
I feel awful now as i have to tell the parents that unfortunately i wont be able to have the child any longer than the 4 weeks as i start my job just after half term...
This is giving me nightmare and really stressing me out as i hate the thought that they feel ive done wrong by them..
any advice appreciated (good or bad )
