Well to me anyway and anyone else who doesn't take a deposit of four weeks payment up front!
My pita parent gave me notice on monday as after three weeks of the lo being sick with a cough and vomiting with it and parent not taking her to dr, and mum saying she was fine, she came down with green diarrohea on Wednesday. At this stage i was fed up of calling her or granny to take her home as she as in now way or form fit to be here and I told them to keep her off Til Monday (48 hours after diarrohea) and to give time for antibiotic to work ... (lung infection)
So mum said a nursery would still have taken her (apparently she was just teething) and she needed someone who would take her as it was an inconvenience I hadnt so she is putting her into nursery. Also I had had three half days off in a year (no other hols except a week at Christmas) this was also an inconvenience .. Two of these Half days were when my sisters baby died of for death
She said she would be finishing end of this week and as I hadnt a contract I couldn't say much. However unusually she hadn't paid me for last week normally pays on a Friday and she wasn't here do expected money in bag
Monday
No money Monday text mum she said only got paid today havent been to bank would get it to me ASAP. Tuesday no money in bag .. Text her last night saying please bring it tomorrow as I have direct debits to pay. Stupidly didnt check I this am when she said it was in bag and when I looked I hadn't been paid for thursday and Friday. I rang her and it all blew up basically she didn't see why she should pay me as I had excluded child not her keeping her off, dr had said not contagious (not so we have all had it since including mindee who's mum is due next week) and dr said she was ok to come. Told her same as policy last 12 months I have had her and same as any nursery the child wouldn't be accepted .. Anyway the argument raged back and forth but I blew my top when she told me if i wanted paying for last week I could deduct it off the overpayment she made me on Feb 13th (she generously had paid me the one and a half days I took off when my niece died which I was grateful for and told her so) anyway couldn't believe she came out with that and said right no pay no care I finish now. So she is gone. I am relieved as she was pita and the child was a major whinger through no fault of her own) and I had such a quiet day today!
I should be paid alright for the two days I did this week as she agreed to this and I have some of the baby's things here plus I see her at school but there you go I have been left without a leg to stand on through my own fault and i am down 800 euros a month.
So moral of long ramble story always take a deposit and the ones you bend over backwards for will always screw you most!!! Don't suppose she would have appreciated one weeks notice to find alternative care!
