Hello everyone,
I have recently (5 weeks ago) taken on a lo 6 hours a day 5 days a week.
Everything with lo was going ok, mum a bit odd always late picking up, an hour one day, never called to say why and more concerned about lo had put her shoes on the wrong feet than asking what sort of a day she had or what she had done.
Then Thursday week before last, mum said they can't afford to bring her any more and that they were aware they would need to give notice, but wasn't sure how long - was it about 2 weeks, I said it was 4 weeks as stated on the contract. off she went, and i had a feeling I wouldn't see them again.I was right the next morning i got a text from mum saying lo wasn't coming today.
Then on the monday got another text from mum, lo not coming for any more session and dad would call round to collect lo's spare clothes and return some borrowed clothes plus an envelope with letter and money owing at 3:45.needless to say he didn't turn up, and I've heard nothing all week.
I ask for weekly payments in advance so they have paid up for childcare received but a months notice is not being observed.
How shall I proceed do you think? I'm not very good when it comes to chasing parents.
