Phyllis Karasov, Attorney
This book eliminates the mystique that surrounds contracts between providers and parents. Providers are often uncertain of their rights, such as the right to be paid, the right to establish certain rules, or the right to take a paid vacation. Family Child Care Contracts & Policies is an excellent guide for providers to the rights and obligations of both parties in the family child care relationship.
