HI everybody, after 5 months of being a Stay at home mom, I decided to get a job in a daycare so I could bring my daughter with me. I've been working for 4 days now, and is been horrible, my daughter cries all the time, she is not with me in the same room, but she is right next to me in the other infant room. I feel that she is not been taking good care of, the lady that is like 60 years old just don't put to much attention to the babies. Today when I got my daughter to go home she had the same diaper I sent her with. I just cried and cried of seen how she is suffering.
I just want to quit, but I know I signed something that says that I promise to be there for a year. Can anybody tell me if I can quit without having any legal trouble? Or how manage this problem?

How horrible for you. How worse for the other parents that don't get a first hand look at what is going on with their children.
If you decide to quit, document what has happened and keep it detailed. If your daughter had on the same diaper all day long, then you need to place an anonymous call Social Services, the Health Department AND the BBB in your area, whether you quit or not. That is a life/health and safety issue. And at a daycare?!?! I'm appalled.
Get out fast and talk to any mothers and or friends you know to find a happy daycare to work at. Don't even list this job on your application for them.
You know what's best for you and your daughter. Perhaps you just posted this question for reassurance.
Good luck

You may quit. Employment "at will" is the general rule- this means that the employer can fire you without a reason and you may quit without a reason- also, you don't need to give notice; the promise to be there a year is not enforceable- a court can't force someone to work- there would be no way for the court to monitor this- further, involuntary servitude was banned years ago by the US Constitution; regarding bad care, you may report this to the licensing authority for daycare

That doesn't sound right that you would be under contract for a year of employment at a day care, but who am I, right. I would get or keep a copy of that contract that states that you must work there for a year 'or else'. You should be happy and comfortable with both your place of employment and especially your daughter's child care. If they give you a hard time about resigning, perhaps you can say that you need to go out on medical leave (insert reason) and get a letter from your doctor. Or someone else mentioned, consulting with an attorney, and perhaps he or she can advise you.

you do not would desire to pay her. and you suggested your self, you acquire paid a flat fee inspite of what is going on that's authentic for many people who watch babies.My niece and nephew daycare service gets paid the comparable a week despite in the event that they don't bypass. She is purely mad given which you stop and that i will understand why. in spite of the reality which you had a solid reason, you suggested you have been a nanny and you in all probability placed her in a great place because of the fact she in all probability has ignored days from paintings now because of the fact there's no person to demonstrate screen the youngsters. If she calls you returned checklist the verbal substitute on the telephone, and keep all text fabric messages and voice-mails because of the fact if she starts off to get nasty you are able to need that if she comes to a decision to take you to court docket to get her a refund.

You can quit, I very seriously doubt if the woman would take legal recourse, especially if you bring up how your baby was neglected. If she does persist, talk to some of the other parents and see what their opinions are,
Look around you might find a better day care where you can work with your child.

Free will - of course you can quit. Don't feel you have to do it all. If you can afford to stay home, do it. Don't look back

read though the contract and get legal counsel if you need it. you could always sue to get out of it. you should be able to get out of this - there are standards for every business. if they are not meeting them - contract is null and void.
