I'm at school in the library. I just
dropped Rowan off at the daycare (which is
in the school) and there was a letter in
Rowan's cubby.
I get subsidized daycare for being in
school, and because I'm poor. Well the
letter said it's being terminated. I have
no idea why. There are gross teen moms
who bring their kids to the daycare
smelling like smoke, who drop them off
then leave the school to go smoke and be
gross.
I like school, I'm passing everything,
doing well. I have plans. This is really
bumming me out, because now I can't come
back next term.

You need to investigate why you got that
letter. You may be able to extend your
daycare. You should for sure fight it.
Why did they say the daycare was
discontinuing?

I have one term left. Ingi the letter
didn't say at all. I showed it to someone
else who said they can't do that without a
warning. They are going to discontinue it
on the 28th, that's in 18 days. The
letter says I have to give the daycare two
weeks warning, yet they only let me know
18 days before terminating it. How in the
%^&* am I expected to find other
arrangements in that short a time. I
think it might be because I had to keep
Rowan out of the daycare three times when
she was sick, so they might think they are
paying for too many days that she wasn't
there.
I will go in and explain to them about the
ashma, and all the other times she was
sick (because she has been sick a lot of
times and the say care didn't let her come
then), and bring letters from my teachers
saying I'm doing well and that I'm a good
student. If they don't change their mind
I'm so screwed, I don't even know what I
will do. I had to keep myself from
bawling all day.
Like you should see the other girls from
my school that have kids in that daycare.
Their disgusting.

So the letter is from the state then? This
letter is your 'warning'.
Call your case worker and ask her what you
need to do to continue the service. More
than likely it is not going to end, they
send these letters sometimes to scare you
into bringing in a whole bunch of papers,
etc.
Did you take her to the doctor on those
days so you might have a doctor's note? If
not, still do everything you are planning
on doing, letters from teachers, etc.
(((hugs))) It is all going to work out.

I agree with Ingi!! 100%!
If you show them your great pregress in
school, and the fact that Rowan was
obviously SICK, they should have no reason
to discontinue your services!!
That's not right.
I hope everything works out for you
Tanya!!!

"Your childcare subsidy for Rowan at
PCI will terminate effective January 23rd,
2008 (I thought it was the 28th until I
just reread it). This provides the
daycare with the required two week notice.
If you have any questions regarding this
decision, please call me at..."
That is not a warning, it means this
letter has given the daycare it's two
weeks notice, and they have a waiting less
so they will definitely have Rowan's spot
filled right away. The teacher's I've
talked to have promised me notes for
Monday, so that is when I can go in and do
something about it. I'll call in a bit
and tell them I can bring in my marks and
letters from my teacher. I can't go back
and get proof of Rowan being sick though.

You should at least call and ask for a
reason.
They're prob not expecting you to respond
and to just obey their command.
Nowadays, the more you complain, the more
you get! LOL!

First thing to do is to find out WHY they
terminated you. Then work within those
parameters. I mean, you obviously still
need the assistance and it isn't like you
are dropping her off at daycare and not
going to school!

That angers me off! I really hope
something is done about it, because that
should not happen. Especially since you're
IN school...they have no reason to
terminate the subsidy. Ridiculous.

I should have just listened to Ingi, when
I called they told me I just needed to go
do some freaken paper work.
I was talking to my teacher, asking her to
write me a letter, and I started bawling
so hard. Boy don't I feel silly now.
My one teacher wrote a letter for me right
away, and she said really good things
about me, which made me cry.
And all this time all I needed was to go
fill in some stupid paper work. Why
couldn't they just say that in my letter!
Basically I spent all day crying and
stressed out over this. And it's going to
be fine! I feel so stupid for having a
melt down at school now. : (
